THE LOVERS ~ ADAM + EVE ~ 1985
The spectacular exhibition, Niki in the Garden at Garfield Park Conservatory
features 34 colossal sculptures.
The brilliantly colored sculptures by the world-renowned artist Niki de Saint Phalle include enormous animals, mythical figures, totems, sports heroes and Nanas – oversized, powerful women celebrating life. Some of her celebrated Nanas grace
the Fontaine Stravinsky near Centre Pompidou in Paris.
Miles Davis ~ 1999
Horticulture Hall
The sculptures are covered with ceramic mosaics, semi-precious stones, mirrors and glass; many invite sitting, climbing or crawling through their secret passages and interiors. Both art lovers and the entire family will be amazed by these monumental works of art, with some reaching as high as 18 feet and as long as 25 feet.
