NOMA and the Sculpture Garden


In the afternoon we took the Canal Street line trolley out to City Park. It is a lovely park built round the Bayou. There is an art gallery and a sculpture park. The purchasing/donation policy seems to be have one of everybody. Not always their best. I think the sculpture park comes off best. The temperature now is a perfect 27C so it was just right for wandering round a garden from seat to seat looking at sculptures. Here are some of my favourites which on reflection seems to show a bias towards British artists.
