The International Sculpture Center Welcomes New Board Member, Isaac Duncan III
(Hamilton, NJ) The International Sculpture Center (ISC), a global nonprofit arts service organization, announced the addition of Isaac Duncan III to the ISC Board of Trustees. Isaac Duncan III, a Brooklyn, New York native, of Caribbean decent, received his BFA degree from the University of Notre Dame, Certification of Secondary Art Education from St. Mary's College and MFA from the University of Kentucky. Isaac is the Past-President of Mid-South Sculpture Alliance and sits on various art boards and committees; Sculpture Fields at Montague Park, ArtsBuild, and the Tennessee Arts Commission: Arts Education Funds for At-Risk Youth/Arts Education Learning Committee. Duncan III has been nominated for the prestigious Joan Mitchell Foundation Sculpture Fellowship and NIKE private proposals. Isaac is a recipient of the Tennessee Arts Commission Individual Artist Fellowship for 2017. His large scale sculptures have been collected by Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia, Lexington Diagnostic Center, Kentucky, African-American Heritage Center, Kentucky, Columbia State College, Tennessee, City of Chattanooga, Tennessee, Erlanger Children's Hospital Kennedy Outpatient Center and Le Domaine Forget, Quebec, Canada and numerous private art collectors. Doug Schatz, Secretary of the International Sculpture Center's Board of Trustees says, "Isaac is a "doer" and an idea person. He will be an asset to the organization because of his commitment to the arts and his willingness to help. He is straightforward, energetic, and will come in with considerable non-profit arts organization experience. Because he is a working sculptor he is familiar with our industry's foibles from multiple angles and will be a valuable contributor to our Board of Trustees." Duncan III is welcomed by ISC's Board leadership members Jon Ott (Chair), Hilary Nitka (Vice Chair), Doug Schatz (Secretary), George Tobolowsky (Treasurer), and 22 other dedicated members of the ISC governing body, eager to champion the ISC mission, oversee ISC activities, and ensure that the organization is well-equipped to fulfill its mission.
