The DeCordova Museum has wonderful architecture. The 3 leaf pieces you see in the foreground are The Endangered Species of New England by Alan Sonfist created in 2011.
The view are stunning from its 6th floor terrace. I wish I got a better photo of the whimsical white column with the rabbit ears to the right. It is titled Children of the Corn by Terence Koh created in 2011. This artist is very inspired by the writings of Stephen King.
Flints pond is next door.
The roof is full of charm.
These hearts in the distance were created in 1985 by Jim Dine title Two Big Black Hearts.
Up close they are massive and you will find all sorts of objects cast into its bronze.
Below is Vision created by Blane de St. Croix in 2003. It is a bleached and stained Australian pine tree covered in glass eyes for as far up as you can see!
A few more sculptures I enjoyed.
This one was in a beautiful wooded area.
This rock garden includes a tranquil water feature!
I hope you have enjoyed this tour of the DeCordova Museum sculpture park. I have only showed about half the pieces. I didn't have time to tour the inside of the museum but I'm sure that would be a treat too!
Thank you for stopping by! ~Val
