De Cordova Sculpture Park Guide
Published by De Cordova Museum and Sculpture Park, Lincoln, MA, 1997
Book First Edition
Soft Boards. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. A VERY GOOD, bright, clean, tight copy. Metal pin bound. PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED in full-page, black-and-white photography of sculptures with accompanying descriptive captions/passages. "The original twenty-two acre Lincoln estate of Julian and Elizabeth Dana de Cordova was heavily wooded with a long, winding drive leading from Sandy Pond Road past a large Carriage House and barn, to the brick mansion built in the early 1900s on the highest point of property overlooking Flint's Pond. The DeCordova and Dana Museum and Park was established in 1948 as a result of the bequest of Julain de Cordova (d. 1945), and first opened to the public in 1950." Book retains its original-issue Sculpture Park map enclosed in rear sleeve. "The DeCordova Sculpture Park, now occupying over thirty acres, presents a three-tier program. The first tier is a small set of outdoor works from the museum's Permanent Collection, primarily by Modernist masters which offer historical context for the contemporary sculptures on display. The second consists of existing works borrowed for one to three year periods from artists, dealers or collectors. This tier represents the majority of the sculptures in the Park. The third tier includes long-term, temporary site-specifics installations-work commissioned and designed expressly for particular sites in the Park. Many of these installations are environmentally based, in terms of both materials and content." LH3.
