| 552 | A Lorell L. Sorensen was a contributor to the South Dakota State University’s College of Agriculture and Biological Sciences in the period Jan 1, 2003 to June 30, 2004. “June 23, 1955. Lorell Sorensen, manager of the Flandreau Co-op Creamery said 4,800 servings of ice cream were distributed at the annual Creamery Picnic held Thursday, June 16, in the city park.” Regarding an exhibit in the late 1990s at the Weeks Library at the University of South Dakota: “African Art The works on display are from a collection developed from gifts by Daisy and Duke Marks of New York City and Lorell Sorensen of Flandreau, South Dakota. The Marks are life-long collectors of African art and benefactors of many notable institutions including the metropolitan Museum of Art and the Fogg Museum at Harvard. Their principle interest has been in collecting works of large-scale sculpture. Mr. Lorell Sorensen's collecting history came from a very different context representing artifacts he assembled while serving as a U.S government agricultural consultant to the country of Togo. His materials represent an interest in daily African life. Together, these collections offer us insight into a broad range of African objects that share a common bond in materials, processes, and style. It is the intent of this display to introduce viewers to African culture via some dynamic tangible expressions of its belief and practices.” Lorell L.
