Clarksburg artist Roger Berry created Portrait of a DNA Sequence to celebrate the pioneering cellular and molecular research taking place in the campus' state-of-the-art Life Sciences Addition building, completed last year. Berry, known for his signature use of glass and water, has done other site-specific sculptures for the UC Davis Medical Center, the Crocker Art Museum and the California Department of Justice headquarters, all in Sacramento. The work was commissioned by the Division of Biological Sciences and underwritten by a $50,000 gift.
Portrait of a DNA Sequence is the latest addition to the campus's growing collection of works of art in public places. The UC Davis Art in Public Places Program brings to campus a wide variety of significant art specifically intended to challenge and expand the viewers' thinking beyond that of the usual day-to-day experience. Funding for the program is provided by private sources. Information about the other works depicted on the cover is provided below.
