Chicago Park District
2021 Sculptures
Chicago Sculpture International members in collaboration with Chicago Park District helped create this year's Sculpture in the Parks. Artists were chosen for their large-scale outdoor works that are suitable for year-round Midwest weather. In 2021 we installed ten new sculptures in Douglass Park, Humboldt Park, Palmer Park, Piotrowski Park, Hamilton Park, and West Pullman Park. Also in 2021, nine sculptures were deinstalled in Garfield Park, Legion Park, Webster Park, Humboldt Park, Douglass Park, Hamilton Park, Palmer Park, and West Pullman Park.
