art in the woods :: Andres Institute of Art

denisegoldberg

Many thanks to @DonRicklin for his reference to the Andres Institute of Art in a previous thread. I visited there last weekend for the first of what is likely to be many visits. I left earlier than I had hoped due to an unexpected (to me, at least) influx of bugs, never thought that it was time to wear bug dope!

Here are a few of my favorites from my walk in the woods.

1 :: The entry gate was pretty cool!

2 :: Human Boulder, by Norbert Jager, Germany (2014)

3 :: Old Man in the Mountains New Home, by Alak Roy, Bangladesh (2014). I believe this is the back of the piece - the front was more metal and shaped like the state of NH. I preferred the rocky side.

4 :: Conscious, by Isidore Batu Siharulidze, Republic of Georgia (2012)

5 :: Transitions, by Yuri Kudravchenko, Ukraine (2003)

6 :: Enjoying the stars, by Alexandre Molev, Russia (2002)

7 :: Debate, by Tomas Kus, Czech Republic (2001)

More photos from my visit can be seen in this gallery.

This wonderful spot is in Brookline, NH. If you're in the area I highly recommend a visit.

Denise,

You are welcome. Looks like my Wife and I will have to get back up there. I don't remember all off these...

I especially like #3. .

I'm so glad you mentioned this place!

The funny thing about # 3 is I think this side was meant to be the back of the sculpture but I liked it better than the other side (which showed the shape of the state better).

Exciting! I can see how bugs would be out there! Nice set. Last one rocks! Like the Pandorans are having a conference!

What completely cool place! Thanks for sharing the pictures, Denise. Although difficult to choose, my favorite of the bunch was #1 - I really liked the composition. I also really appreciated the fact that you listed the information about the artists.

Thanks for your comments!

Sara -
I was impressed that almost all of the sculptures had name tags near them. I made sure to grab photos of the names as well as the sculptures - I knew I would never remember them otherwise.

You have some interesting shots of things I didn't see; clearly I will need to return.

Thanks Eric! I'll be going back there (soon, I suspect) - with bug dope next time.
