"David Vertacnik received his MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University in Alfred, N.Y., in 1975 and his bachelor of science degree from Indiana State University in 1972.
"His art has been viewed in numerous solo, two-person, and group exhibitions in the United States and Slovenia. His work is held in public and private collections, including those belonging to Bethel College (Newton, Kan.), the Lowe Art Museum (Coral Gables, Fla.), and the former President of Slovenia, Milan Kucan.
"David employs a wide range of materials in his pieces, including ceramics, cast bronze, industrial and agricultural objects. Many of his sculptures are designed for outdoor sites, created with elements that move freely in space." ~ Kansas University
