Mr. Speaker. this month marks the 15th anniversary of the death of Beniamino Bufano. an immigrant sculptor. and artistic trailblazer who is surely one of the great artists of the twentieth century. It gives me great pleasure to announce to my colleagues that my district. on the beautiful peninsula of San Mateo County. CA. has been offered the family collection of Bufano sculpture. paintings. and drawings. We are now searching for an appropriate setting in which to place these pieces to be enJoyed by all our citizensyoung and old. Let me tell you a little about Benny Bufano who may be seen as a citizen of the world. but who called California his home.
