The Storm King 15

For those of you who are unaware of its existence (I was too, until the day I went) The Storm King Art Center lies in the beautiful Hudson Valley of New York State. Essentially a large sculpture garden, Storm King has works by major artists like Louise Bourgeois, Alexander Calder, Alice Aycock, Roy Lichtenstein and Maya Lin, among many others. I went on an amazing Autumn day, perhaps the most amazing of the season so far. The grounds have been carved from the landscape to collaborate with the pieces themselves, and the result is a stunning combination of art and nature. If you get the chance to visit this extraordinary place, I hope that you will take it. Until then, here are my photos.
