SCULPTURE GARDEN ARCHIVES

Art in the Garden: The Inaugural Sculpture Garden Installation
September 25, 2018 through 2019

The new John and Joyce Caddell Sculpture Garden at the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts provides an innovative venue for the display of art in the ever-changing natural landscape. Every element of nature—from the landscape design to the cyclical progression of skies, lights, and seasons—complements the sculptural creations sited in this new “gallery.”
Designed with the flexibility to accommodate changing displays, the inaugural installation features the temporary siting of sculpture by a number of contemporary artists including two of international distinction: Deborah Butterfield and Jun Kaneko. Magnificently standing in the grass is Butterfield’s Isbelle, 2001, a unique bronze horse modeled on the artist’s dressage mare and cast from her adroit assemblage of wood sticks and pieces. Kaneko’s three ceramic works from his Dango series are monumental, playful, and combine painting and sculpture with thematic resonances of historical Eastern and Western art.
In addition, to celebrate Alabama’s bicentennial and demonstrate the depth of creativity found in the state the new installation highlights work by eight innovative Alabama sculptors: Adam Bodine; Casey Downing, Jr.; Christopher Fennell; Randy Gachet; Joe Minter; Chris Boyd Taylor; and Craig Wedderspoon. Also on view is our first permanent addition to the sculpture garden, Untitled (Nymph), 1933, by Jessie Duncan Wiggin.
