Jerry Ross Barrish, Found
 William Farley, Janis Plotkin Sculptor Jerry Barrish is an original. After successful careers as a bail bond’s man and independent filmmaker, Barrish at age 50 made a seamless transition to figurative sculpture mostly from plastic refuse. Twenty years later, a film will celebrate his vitality and drive as an artist in mid-career. The visual narrative will follow his artistic process of assemblage and construction of a bronze sculpture commissioned by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency. Attention will be given to Barrish’s fascinating life-stories that will shine a light on the essence of his art: gesture, form, compassion and wit. The film culminates with the installation of a new bronze sculpture in the City of San Francisco. | When making a fiscal sponsorship donation with a credit card, 3% is deducted from the donation amount to cover the merchant account processing fees.
