ICE AND STEEL: Sculpture was very much an element in the Center's opening. An ice sculptor from the Greenbrier Hotel executed the Center's logo as a centerpiece, but the focal point of the evening was "Parmenides," a six-foot. $23,000 Beverly Pepper sculpture described by the Center's administrator, Pat Tanner, as "metal origami". Contributed by New-week, the welded steel piece was unveiled in the sculpture garden by Richard Lynch, the magazine's deputy director of public affairs.

ALL IN THE FAMILY: Although the creator of the sculpture lives in Todi, Italy, there are West Virginia connections. Her husband, Bill Pepper, formerly Newsweek's Rome Bureau Chief, is a Huntington native whose mother, Edwina Pepper, lives at "The Knob" in Kenova. Newsweek owner Katherine Graham, responding to a thank-you letter for the generous gift, noted that her son is married to Beverly Pepper's daughter.
