Four Installations for the Design Biennial Boston
Besides looking up at sculptured sheep, aerial art, and a seventy-foot tall mural, you can also explore art at ground level on the Greenway. The four pieces selected for the Design Biennial allow you to get close, all around, and, for two, even inside. These four award winners came in mid-July, and they’ll go in late September (9/25). They will give back pleasure and new perspectives for any time you can give them. They will connect wonderfully with the art above you and also with the gardens, buildings, and beings along the Greenway.

I’m posting now with photos and resources to get the word out. But I hope to have more to show after a few more visits, before the final days of these fascinating additions to the Greenway.
