Introduction
The Olympic Sculpture Park is the outdoor extension of the Seattle Art Museum, located on downtown Seattle's waterfront and opened in 2007. This nine-acre free public park transformed a former industrial and railroad site into an open-air art space displaying over 20 large-scale modern sculptures from artists worldwide. Designed by New York firm Weiss Manfredi, the Z-shaped path elegantly connects three different elevations of city, shoreline, and park, allowing visitors to experience dialogue between art and nature, urban and harbor settings. Signature works include Alexander Calder's Eagle, Mark di Suvero's Schubert, and Richard Serra's Band, each engaging in unique conversation with the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains backdrop.
