Summary: The Middelheim Museum in Antwerp is an inevitable place, maybe even a paradise, for every sculpture admirer. Ludion leads the visitor throughout the open air museum, focusing on the most important works by Auguste Rodin, Rik Wouters, Jesus Rafael Soto, Aristide Maillol, Germaine Richier, Henry Moore, Constant Meunier, Constant Permeke, Panamarenko, Koenraad Tinel, Hans Arp, Ossip Zadkine, and many other masters from all movements and periods from the fine art of sculpture.
Sculpture parks and gardens, whether woodland sanctuaries or urban retreats, sprawling sites or intimate oases, offer sculpture lovers and artists alike unique ways to experience the outdoors, sculpture, and the intersections between nature and culture. Since the mid-20th century, these venues have become important tourist destinations and essential aspects of public life in cities such as Chicago, Minneapolis, and Seattle and regions such as Yorkshire in England and the Hudson Highlands in New York. Landscapes for Art: Contemporary Sculpture Parks surveys a wide range of sculpture parks and gardens that focus on contemporary art--from well-established, museum-type institutions to small-scale, non-collecting, experimental programs. The book includes profiles of sculpture parks in the U.S., U.K., Japan, Australia, Lithuania, China, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands, Belgium, India, Latvia, Sweden, and Finland (among others). There are articles on key topics by art critics, landscape architects, and sculpture park professionals and interviews with Isamu Noguchi, Martin Friedman, and Alfio Bonanno.
