Holiday Art Tour – Year 4

Without my planning it, the Holiday Art Tour of sculptures in Lake Oswego appears to have become an annual Labor Day feature here on TGB. This is the fourth.

Each year, the members of the town Arts Council select sculptures for the city streets of Lake Oswego that are displayed on loan for a two-year period in what is called the Museum Without Walls. Via public vote, one is selected to be purchased for the permanent collection.

The sculptures I'm showing you today are not the newest that were unveiled in August because I didn't get out and about to photograph them and the Arts Council hasn't posted photos yet.

These are from last year, still in place for another 12 months.

All this surely does make for an interesting downtown - especially in a small city of fewer than 40,000 residents. Enjoy your holiday.

I'm torn between Sunrise in the City and Unwrapped as my favorites.

Some of those I like a lot tho my brain identified those crows as pigeons.

Daphne and Sunrise In the City get my vote. If I had to choose between those two I would opt for Daphne.

I'd be happy to see "Sunrise in the City" in my garden.

I thought they were all wonderful!

Small towns can be interesting and many creative people now live in small towns.

By the way I like the Unwrapped by Dan Toone, because it is relaxing and smoothing to look at. But some are a little unsettling to me.

Unwrapped gets my vote.

I love the Museum without Walls concept. In Charlottesville, Virginia, they call it ArtinPlace and every time I go there I really enjoy seeing the variety of sculptures around the city.
My vote goes to "Unwrapped".

Unwrapped....my fav!
