“The marriage of the outdoors with the creativity of man... a chance to commune with nature.”
New York Times

The Storm King Art Center is a museum that celebrates the relationship between sculpture and nature, an enchanting realm where art and nature meet. Five hundred acres of landscaped lawns, hills, fields, and woodlands are accented by carefully sited modern sculpture, including sculpturally mowed alfalfa fields.

The grounds are surrounded by undulating profiles of the Hudson River Highlands, a dramatic panorama integral to the viewing experience. Visitors are encouraged to enjoy nature as well as art, to meander on trails and discover sculptures, and to traverse the fields and walk among the monumental works. Also available are self-guided tours of a major portion of the sculpture park by handicapped accessible trams. The appearance of the sculptures is affected by changes in light and weather, so no two visits are ever the same.

The focus of the Storm King Art Center’s distinguished permanent collection of modern sculpture is on monumental works from the 1960s to the present. A group of thirteen sculptures by David Smith is the core of the collection of outstanding works by modern masters such as Alexander Calder, Louise Nevelson, Mark di Suvero, Isamu Noguchi, and Andy Goldsworthy’s 2,278-ft.-long British stone wall, which disappears into a pond and snakes around trees.
