The Frost and FIU’s Sculpture Park team up for an outdoor exhibit

The Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum and FIU’s Sculpture Park will welcome the addition of 11 large-scale sculptures for an unprecedented outdoor exhibition titled American Sculpture in the Tropics for the fall-winter season.

John Henry, I Lean, Steel/Painted Red, 26’H x 17’L c 10’D, Weight – approximate 1100 lbs.

The works originated in the United States and have traveled from their original installation in St. Urban, Switzerland, and Sarasota’s Season of the Arts. Made of a variety of materials including steel, aluminum, cast fiberglass, copper, concrete, wood and rubber tires, each work represents the best of contemporary sculpture through its most recognized artists and the diversity of styles, themes and technical approaches that characterize our times. Artists include John Henry, Albert Paley, Dennis Oppenheim, Chakaia Booker and Verina Baxter.

The outdoor sculptures will make their debut on Oct. 17, in conjunction with Target Wednesday After Hours. Visit The Frost for more information.
