Uncommon Ground IV<\/em><\/a>, an outdoor sculpture exhibition curated by Cheryl Sokolow of C Fine Art<\/a> and produced in partnership with Peconic Land Trust<\/a>, returns to Bridge Gardens in Bridgehampton for its fourth edition.<\/p>\n

The exhibition opens at noon on Saturday, June 26, and will feature a VIP reception over Labor Day weekend. The show will remain on view through September 29, 2022. This year\u2019s line-up at the 5-acre Bridge Gardens property will include 20-plus larger-than-life sculptures created by the hands of 14 contemporary sculptors working in a variety of materials including metal, stone, marble and wood.<\/p>\n

The exhibition allows for amply-distanced viewing and anticipated programming will include music, curator\u2019s tours and artists\u2019 talks throughout the year.<\/p>\n

According to a release from C Fine Art, “Uncommon Ground<\/em> explores our relationship with the natural world and the one we create. The dynamic of the garden itself, with its undulating play between the purely natural and \u2018cultivated,\u2019 provides the substrate or ‘ground’ from which the sculptures are seemingly born.\u201d<\/p>\n

Participating artists in the show include\u00a0Kevin Barrett,\u00a0Norman Mooney,\u00a0Bill Barrett,\u00a0Joel Perlman,\u00a0Hans van de Bovenkamp,\u00a0Richard Heinrich,\u00a0Robert Perless,\u00a0Alex Barrett,\u00a0Gino Miles,\u00a0Carole Eisner<\/a>,\u00a0Harry S. Gordon,\u00a0David Hayes,\u00a0Steve Zaluski and\u00a0Peter Rosenthal.<\/p>\n

Kevin Barrett\u2019s\u00a0sculpture Guided Spirit<\/em> was created expressly for the exhibition and its rhythmic, organic forms echo the immortal branches of nearby trees and the lyricism of the garden terrain. Norman Mooney\u2019s Butterfly Effect<\/em> seems to have germinated from the garden soil, growing beyond its physical possibilities, while Robert Perless\u2019 kinetic Pulsar<\/em> is beckoned by the wind and light to create a trail of reflective rainbows and curiosities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sculptures are wonderfully paired with their surroundings,\u201d said Bridge Gardens Director Rick Bogusch. \u201cThey enhance the garden landscape and provide another layer of meaning to our visitors.\u201d<\/p>\n

Founded in 1988 by Harry Neyens and Jim Kilpatric who designed and installed the gardens over the ensuing 20 years, in 2008, Bridge Gardens was donated to the Peconic Land Trust, a not-for-profit organization that conserves the working farms, natural lands and heritage of Long Island.<\/p>\n
