Sculpture in the Parks began as CSI’s 2012-2013 Lakefront Exhibition, in conjunction with the Chicago Park District, of over 60 sculptures installed between Belmont Harbor and Promontory Point. In 2014, it evolved into a year-long exhibit of approximately 20 sculptures in 20 different Chicago parks, which continues to this day.
Covered in monumental artworks, this award-winning nine-acre sculpture park on the waterfront is Seattle's largest downtown green space and is just one mile north of the Seattle Art Museum.

A sculpture garden or sculpture park is an outdoor garden dedicated to the presentation of sculpture, usually several permanently sited works in durable materials in landscaped surroundings.[1] These installations are related to several similar concepts, most notably land art, where landscapes become the basis of a site-specific sculpture, and topiary gardens, which consists of training live plants into living sculptures.
A sculpture garden may be private, owned by a museum and accessible freely or for a fee, or public and accessible to all. Some cities own large numbers of public sculptures, some of which they may present together in city parks.
Exhibits range from individual, traditional sculptures to large site-specificinstallations. Sculpture gardens may also vary greatly in size and scope, either featuring the collected works of multiple artists, or the artwork of a single individual.
History[edit]
Sculpture gardens have a long history around the world – the oldest known collection of human constructions is a Neanderthal 'sculpture garden' unearthed in Bruniquel Cave in France in 1990.[2] Within the cave, broken stalagmites were arranged in a series of stacked or ring-like structures approximately 175,000 years ago.
In the United States, the oldest public sculpture garden is a part of the joint park and wildlife preserve Brookgreen Gardens,[3] located in South Carolina. The property was opened in 1932, and has since been included on the National Register of Historic Places.[4]
