TESTIMONIALS

"What a miracle you succeeded in making happen... I am truly stunned and pleased to see the integrity and quality of the work. With highest respect and enormous thanks, I am well aware it was and is not easy to make ONE of a KIND original work."
-Kristin Jones, Artist, New York, NY

"I would like to thank the entire team at Demiurge as they treat the project as their own. It couldn't have been done any better than this and I sincerely thank you."
-Osman Akan, Artist, Brooklyn, NY

"I can’t say that I have ever worked with a more motivated and professional group of installers then the Demiurge crew. Thanks for helping us bring this project to life and rolling with all the changes/requests/headaches. I do hope we have an opportunity to work together in the future."
- S. Elmes, Action Partner Marketing/Biennial of the Americas

"The fabrication company, Demiurge, is by far the best company to repair [my] unique stainless steel sculpture. The owner, Joe Riche and his staff, have the credentials, skill, machinery, and knowledge to assure repair, installation, and above all craftsmanship to do the best job possible. Other company's may have similar skills but do not have the artists' interest in mind. Joe Riche in his own right is a very successful sculptor and entrepreneur in metal fabrication."
- Erick C. Johnson, Artist, Denver, CO

"Your team was great, you're easy to work with, full of good advice and helpful and creative."
- Bill and Mary Buchen, Artists, New York, NY

"I was THRILLED to have your news of the restoration of "Duo". What a fabulous job you did -- the piece looks wonderful! The sculpture is so perfectly restored there is no evidence anywhere of the damage. You are a marvelous artist and craftsman. I look forward to working with you on future projects."
- Lin Emery, Artist, New Orleans, LA 

"Demiurge brings a level of design intelligence to their projects which is uncommon among other fabricators." 
- Alan Ford, Pricipal, Ford Architects, Denver, CO

"As a structural engineer, I have worked closely with Joe on many projects, both his own sculptures and those of others, on small and large scales. Joe’s work as a sculptor is inspiring to me, its ability to simultaneously inspire awe, humor, and wonder, and in its accessibility on many levels. But I may be even more inspired by Joe’s understanding of the processes of creating art, designing an object, and constructing it are all one thing. His ability to collaborate freely and effectively, without ego, to achieve the best possible result is a key part of that process, and it is certainly rewarding for those of us lucky enough to work with him. Joe is a true 21st century artist and craftsman."
- Gregory R. Kingsley, Ph.D, P.E., President and CEO, KL&A Structural Engineers & Builders

"You and your crew are second to none."
-Will Ryman, Artist, Manhatten, NY
