The Henry Moore Sculpture Garden at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art
Kansas City, Missouri
Client: Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art
Size: 46 acres
Completion: 1988
A national competition, won in association with landscape architect Dan Kiley, entailed the design of an outdoor sculpture garden for a collection of Henry Moore bronzes. Two allees of linden trees enclose stone ‘zipper’ paths at the edges of the sloping lawn whose upper end is graded into wide grass terraces planted with ginkgo trees.
