Sticks and Stones: the making of a sculpture garden
Photography by Debra Rosenblum
In 2004, a generous and impassioned art collector and supporter of the arts, commissioned me to collaborate with her on a most ambitious private endeavor -- to create a sculpture garden/event on her beautiful woodland property in the western suburbs of Philadelphia. With complete curatorial freedom, I was indulged by being "provided" with a wonderful landscape and fabulous architecturally designed home to install sculpture and site specific installations. With Gallery in the Garden and then Sticks and Stones, visitors were able to experience contemporary work in a residential context where the environment(s) differed so dramatically -- contemporary home versus primitive stone farmhouse, a large woodland space versus an intimate garden setting. In 2005 over 900 visitors experienced the magical event!
