The Estate of the Artist, New York, New York.NOTE:

"Inspired by what she calls 'fragments lost in time,' Donneson's abstract sculptures evoke a raw primitivism reminiscent of ancient cultures. The gnarled forms and textured surfaces recall a visual language of the past, and yet, convey the energy of the present. Donneson explores the notion of rebirth and decay in today's fast-paced society, and this duality is brought to life by her use of materials. Donneson begins with handmade paper structures, which she then brings to the Modern Art Foundry to be cast in bronze. An exciting tension is created by the juxtaposition of these two mediums-embodying both a fragility and strength at once."- Excerpt from the National Arts Club New York's 2011 exhibition introduction.
