Thank you Marc for sending me these photos you took in the NOMA Sculpture Garden on May 12th, 2015.

Sculpture Park in the City Park
of New Orleans
The Sydney
and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden at NOMA
The Sydney and Walda Besthoff
Sculpture Garden occupies approximately five acres in City Park adjacent to the
museum. Atypical of most sculpture gardens, this garden is located within a
mature existing landscape of pines, magnolias and live oaks. The garden design
creates outdoor viewing spaces within this picturesque landscape. A
reconfigured lagoon bisects the site and creates two distinct halves: a mature
pine and magnolia grove adjacent to the museum, and a more open area of
200-year-old, Spanish moss-laden live oaks across the lagoon near the New
Orleans Botanical Gardens. The Sculpture Garden has grown from its inception in
2003 to include 64 sculptures, most of them donated to NOMA by the Sydney and
Walda Besthoff Foundation.
