Nassau County Museum of Art: The Sculpture Gardens, Mixing Statues and People

December 29, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

The outdoor sculpture park on 145 acres of the former Frick Estate in Nassau County, Long Island, NY, offers a mix of statues and people on its expansive grounds.The long shadows mixed with afternoon light may confuse as to which figures are real and which are immobile statues. Of course, Botero's massive images stand distinct. No confusion there. But playful children weaving in outdoor art and a solitary triad by bench and tree trunk warrant a second look.
