This Thurs. the Third Grade wooden sculptures go on display in the library. Please stop in and see them! These works show a great diversity of subject matter and style. Very little material was cut or trimmed. Most of the work was put together with the available pieces combined with imagination, thinking about balance, form, and about creating a work that is interesting from all sides.
There are many opportunities to see three dimensional works locally, from monuments to the annual sculpture show at Chesterwood and from Sculpture Now, which will be putting work in Lenox and Hinsdale this year. There is also ArtOmi’s gorgeous sculpture park, along with smaller venues tucked around these hills. Letting your children see sculpture in person may be inspirational. Perhaps you can start your own family sculpture park in your yard?
