The Prospect Park Alliance<\/a>, NYC Parks<\/a> and Susan Eley Fine Art<\/a> are pleased to announce the upcoming public exhibition of sculpture by New York artist Carole Eisner<\/a> in Brooklyn\u2019s Prospect Park<\/a>. The exhibition of four monumental works will premiere on May 15, 2016, and will remain on view for one year.<\/p>\n

The sculptures will be placed in three key sites throughout the Park, chosen to maximize visitor access. The grassy triangle entrance facing Grand Army Plaza<\/a> will be home to \u201cZerques,\u201d one of the smaller sculptures standing six and half feet tall; \u201cValentine II,\u201d named for its elegant heart shaped form, will be placed on the lawn in front of the historic\u00a0Litchfield Villa<\/a> on 5th<\/sup> Street; and two sculptures, \u201cDancer\u201d and \u201cSkipper,\u201d 17 feet and 13 feet tall, respectively, and constructed with curved I-beams spiraling and soaring upwards, will be placed on the Peninsula in front of the Lake.<\/p>\n

This is Eisner\u2019s third public art exhibition with the NYC Parks\u2019 Art in the Parks program. In 2009 Eisner presented nine sculptures along the medians of Broadway, organized by the Parks Department and the Broadway Mall Association<\/a>; and in 2012, \u201cHosea\u201d was installed at the Tramway Plaza<\/a> on 59th<\/sup> and Second Avenue.<\/p>\n

\u201cParks is so pleased to partner with the Prospect Park Alliance and the Susan Eley Fine Art Gallery on this exciting new public art exhibition in Prospect Park,\u201d said NYC Parks Commissioner Mitchell J. Silver, FAICP. \u201cAs a Brooklyn resident, I look forward to seeing Carole Eisner\u2019s work displayed at the different locations around this beautiful park. Her sculptures are magnificent and eye-catching, and are sure to grab the attention of Prospect Park\u2019s countless visitors. Art in the parks has a great impact on people of all ages, is integral to the park experience, and nourishes the soul.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
