Donald J Hali Sculpture Park at the Nelson-Atkins Museum Part 1

 Today I walked the 22 acre Sculpture Park.  There are 31 sculptures plus other pictures I took.  I will be breaking this up for a post today and then the other one later this week.  It's suppose to rain on Thursday and Friday so I'm looking at museums but need one day to buy a new trash can and do errands.  So here we go.


First from the north lawn, the Nelson-Atkins is impressive.  The water feature is one of the art sculptures.  #3 by Walter De Maria One Sun/34 Moons


#1 Magadalena Abakanowicz Standing Figures (30)


It's for the holocaust.  Each figure is different.  All are headless.
