NJ - Hamilton: Grounds for Sculpture - Seward Johnson: The Retrospective - Part of Nature
Part of Nature, a life-scale alumninum sculpture of a nude bather inspired by Pierre-Auguste Renoir's 1888 painting Baigneuse, was cast by Seward Johnson in 2000.
Seward Johnson: The Retrospective was scheduled to be on exhibition at the Grounds For Sculpture from May 4 to September 21, 2014 but due to overwhelming popularity, was extended through July 2015. The exhibit presents an overview of the New Jersey sculptor's 50-year career through a lifetime collection of over 150 of his works. In its first month on exhibit, the park attracted 30,000 visitors—nearly 20 percent of its normal annual attendance.
Grounds For Sculpture is a 42-acre sculpture park and museum located on the former site of the New Jersey State Fairgrounds in Hamilton Township. The grounds, which feature over 270 large scale contemporary sculptures, were founded in 1992 by John Seward Johnson II.
