RIP: Lee Musselman, 1956-2013

Photographs by Sara Ayers

Lee Musselman has been one of our favorite artists ever since we discovered an exhibition of some of his haunting assemblages several years ago at David Dew Bruner Design in Hudson. Since then we’ve seen his work at a number of different galleries and other venues around Hudson.

So it was no surprise to see several of Musselman’s works in the storefront windows up and down Warren Street during the recent Hudson Music Festival. We were, however, deeply saddened to see the small signs that read “In memory of…” accompanying his sculptural assemblages.

Lee Musselman passed away last month at the age of 57.
