Six sculptures ranging from 8 to 12 feet high, depicting everyday objects such as an umbrella, a wheelbarrow, a light bulb, a shoe. These larger than life works are playful and evocatively simple. Visitors can walk around the pieces at Discovery Green, observing these extraordinary sculptures in a new context.
The Shape of Things: Michael Craig-Martin at Discovery Green is presented in partnership with Gagosian. Discovery Green’s public art program is made possible in part by generous contributions from park supporters and professional services are provided by the Weingarten Art Group. The exhibition is part of the Discovery Green Conservancy’s Public Art Program which has, over the past 10 years, enriched visitor experience with numerous temporary exhibitions as well as several signature permanent pieces.
Visitors are invited to share their experiences using the hashtags #MichaelCraigMartin and #DiscoveryGreen.
