acres that includes woodlands, wetlands, meadows and a 35-acre lake, 100
Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park will be one of the largest
museum art parks in the country, and the only one to feature the ongoing
commission of site-specific artworks. When it opens in June 2010, 100 Acres
will present art projects, exhibitions and discussions designed to strengthen
the public's understanding of the unique, reciprocal relationships between
contemporary art and the natural world. The Indianapolis Museum of Art will
be home to eight site-specific commissions, which will inaugurate 100 Acres.
Atelier Van Lieshout, Kendall Buster, Alfredo Jaar, Jeppe Hein, Los
Carpinteros, Tea Mäkipää, Type A, and Andrea Zittel, will create
temporary, site-specific works that explore and respond to the varied
environments of the Park. These eight artists will be the first in a series
of ongoing commissions.
