Summary of Recommendations for Sculpture

The chart below summarizes projects related to sculpture and furnishings. The first group of projects are those that involve minor conservation or ongoing maintenance. The second group are those that require more extensive care or conservation. Within this group, highest priority should be given to conservation of sculptures that are artistically significant, are in very visible locations, or are threatened. The last group of projects include sculptures that should be recarved or relocated. Several sculptures, notably the Centaur and the Sun Singer, have issues related to their bases or pedestals.

CIRCULATION

Many circulation issues have been addressed with the construction of the ADA path in 2000. Most of the remaining issues are relatively minor and can be undertaken in conjunction with work on individual gardens. The exception is the need to repair and resurface the road leading to and around the Sun Singer, which is considered a part of the overall road rehabilitation program rather than specific to this particular garden and thus is not addressed in detail.
