BELVEDERE
Neuberger Museum of Art, Purchase, NY.
2003
Steel, Astroturf, oil cloth, artificial and real flowers, 18'x5'x5'.
Sited within an alley of trees surrounded by the modernist architecture of the Purchase campus, Belvedere offers a refuge. The urns turned on their sides spilling flowers to the ground serve as benches. They afford a view down the alley to the great lawn. Belvedere is both a play on and with nature.
