Minneapolis, Minnesota - Minneapolis Sculpture Garden - Complete Tour (2022)

The Minneapolis Sculpture Garden is an 11-acre (4.5 ha) park in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the United States. It is located near the Walker Art Center, which operates it in coordination with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. It reopened June 10, 2017 after a reconstruction that resulted with the Walker and Sculpture Garden being unified as one 19-acre campus. It is one of the largest urban sculpture gardens in the country, with 40 permanent art installations and several other temporary pieces that are moved in and out periodically. The park is located to the west of Loring Park and the Basilica of Saint Mary. The land was first purchased by the park board around the start of the 20th century, when it was known as "The Parade" because it had been used for military drills. It became known as the Armory Gardens after park superintendent Theodore Wirth created a formal design that included a U.S. National Guard armory (Kenwood Armory) for Spanish War volunteers. Working as a civic and cultural center, in 1913 a floral convention transformed the land into floral gardens, which it remained for the next 50 years. In 1934, six years after the Walker Art Gallery opened across the street, the Armory was demolished for its instability, and a new Armory built in downtown Minneapolis, turning the Armory Gardens over to the Minneapolis Park Board. Since 1908 the area of today's Sculpture Garden and land to the west had been used for sport recreation via mildly-improved playing fields and the 1950 construction of the original Parade Stadium. In 1988, the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden opened, designed by Edward Larrabee Barnes and landscape architects Quinnel and Rothschild. Parade Stadium was demolished in 1990, two years later the Garden was expanded, adding 3.5 acres (1.4 ha). Michael Van Valkenburgh and Associates, Inc. designed the northward extension to complement the original space with a more open area that features a walkway and the 300-foot-long (91 m) Alene Grossman Memorial Arbor. The centerpiece of the garden is the Spoonbridge and Cherry (1985–1988) fountain designed by husband and wife Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen. A pedestrian bridge, the Irene Hixon Whitney Bridge (1987), designed by Siah Armajani, now crosses Hennepin Avenue, connecting the sculpture garden to Loring Park. 0:00 Gog & Magog (Ampersand) 0:19 Two-way Mirror Punched Steel Hedge Labyrinth 1:13 September Room 1:59 Level Head 2:13 Adam and Eve 2:32 Back of Snowman 2:49 Bronze Woman IV 3:03 Hephaestus 3:23 La soledad 3:33 Empire 3:55 Five Plates, Two Poles, Amaryllis, & Double Curve 4:05 Five Plates, Two Poles 4:12 Amaryllis 4:20 Double Curve 4:27 Spoonbridge and Cherry 5:39 Untitled 6:02 Shodo Shima Stone Study 6:24 Sagacious Head 6 and Sagacious Head 7 7:26 LOVE 7:58 Hahn/Cock 8:43 Arikidea 9:28 Dawn Tree 9:51 For Whom ... 10:17 Hare on Bell on Portland Stone Piers 11:03 Black Vessel for a Saint 11:24 X with Columns 11:50 Please Subscribe
