ART PARK
ART PARK is an evolving, mobile collection of outdoor sculpture installations designed to uplift and entertain audiences in public parks and gardens, and at outdoor festivals and other events.
Elements can be added, subtracted, and created to suit the needs of the institution, landscape, audience, and occasion, as well as other factors. ART PARK installations can remain in place for days, weeks, or months.
The inaugural incarnation, ART PARK: FURSTWURLD, arrived in October 2021 at Furstwurld Gallery and Performing Arts in Joshua Tree, CA. ART PARK: FURSTWURLD includes:
- WILDFLOWERS, a collection of 11-14' tall painted sheet metal weathervanes;
- a 20' tall sculpture woven from eucalyptus branches that were harvested as part of ecological restoration projects;
- a 15' tall wooden scaffold holding a selection of mobile 3D glyph-like sculptures - a wind-activated visual poem;
- scheduled performances of the SOUND MACHINE - playable chimes made from industrial parts;
- a collection of pedestal-mounted steel sculptures. some of which can be seen here.
Other ART PARK elements not present at Furstwurld include wire sculpture, participatory art-making projects, workshops, and customized adventures in art yet to be imagined.
