Another Trip to the USA / Sioux Falls SD - The Sculpture Walk

SculptureWalk Sioux Falls is the largest annual exhibit of public sculptures in the world.
Curated by a blind jury of local dignitaries and art enthusiasts, works are loaned by the artists and installed in the spring throughout downtown Sioux Falls, to be continuously displayed all year. The public votes for the “People’s Choice Award” from May through September, and the favorite sculpture is purchased by the City of Sioux Falls to become part of its permanent collection.
Also, industry experts select “Best of Show” awards, which honor works achieving the highest levels of artistic merit and creativity. 
‘Elk’ won the Peoples Choice Award which was a bit of a surprise.
But SD is a hunting state.
And my fave ‘Volereta’ (see last pic), won second prize for Best of Show.
This year was the 19th exhibition and was as good as ever. 
We ‘did’ it twice!




And my favourite of the whole exhibition
