The Art Museum’s outdoor sculpture has moved! If you have
been around UK’s
Singletary Center
recently, you probably noticed the
heavy
machinery digging holes and moving stuff around to make room for a temporary
structure that will house UK dining services and restaurants that are currently
located within the Student Center.
The move made the sculptures more accessible than ever. We hope you can come by and take a rest on the
Stone Bench with Great Raven by Peter
Woytuk, or spend a quiet moment watching the subtle but constant motions of George
Rickey’s Two Lines Oblique.
Other
sculptures that have found new homes around the Singletary Center are Pass Thru by Richard Hunt, Road Snake by Bob Haozous, Profile Cantor 5-3 by Ernest Trova, and The Pairs by Peter Woytuk.
Three other works have moved off-site. Sylvan
by Albert Paley was returned to the artist, ending a long-term loan to The Art
Museum. Coal Pot by El Anatsui is being stored and conserved, and Recover by Patrick Toups can still be
seen in the rear courtyard of the Fine Arts Building.
The Museum staff is excited to see these changes coming to
our front door and we’re looking forward to what the future will bring to our
space. Stop by to see the new sculpture
placements, and come inside for a break from the winter weather and an
opportunity to see some beautiful art.
