artists/artworksHeaven and Earth Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition at Carkeek Park June 26 - August 10, 2009 Curated by David Francis In collaboration with the Carkeek Park Advisory Council, Seattle Parks and Recreation, the Department of Neighborhoods, and the Associated Recreational Council, CoCA will present an exhibition of temporary, outdoor sculptural installations in Carkeek Park organized around the theme of Heaven and Earth, from June 26 - August 10, 2009. The sponsors asked artists for their interpretations of art and nature in a world of change. Our parks are implicitly havens (heavens) where we go to relax, recreate, and, in Carkeek's case especially, walk through the woods. Carkeek is widely considered one of Seattle's premier urban forests...Sunset Magazine recently named it #3 among America's top 10 urban parks. The artwork is constructed of primarily natural materials and is designed to have minimal impact on the park -- either decomposing organically, leaving no trace -- or, when removed at the end of the display period, leaving the park in essentially the same condition it was prior to installation.
