About a dozen years ago, I had the opportunity to be a writer in residence in this outdoor sculpture park in upstate New York. It looks like things are taking off there these days!

More Aria

These are the last photos I’ll post of the Aria Station area in Las Vegas. It interests me that these basically decorative fountains et al co-exist with the similar–but much more “serious” James Turrell. It kind of blurs distinctions.
I have high hopes for Vegas right now in terms of more and new land art and installations–it’s got the money, the scale, and the tradition of Nevada as an epicenter. I’m keeping an eye out!

These are made of ice.

And fountains change color…
