Indianapolis Museum of Art announces 100 Acres Opening Weekend Schedule
INDIANAPOLIS, IN, – The Indianapolis Museum of Art has announced the schedule of events for the grand opening of 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park. Held on June 19 and 20, 2010, the weekend-long celebration includes tours, live music, art-making workshops and a Summer Solstice program.
The Park will open with eight newly commissioned inaugural works by international artists. Kendall Buster, Los Carpinteros, Jeppe Hein, Alfredo Jaar, Tea Mäkipää, Type A, Atelier Van Lieshout and Andrea Zittel have spent several years working closely with the IMA to develop projects that explore and respond to the varied environments of 100 Acres. Architect Marlon Blackwell designed a LEED-certified visitor pavilion, and landscape architect Ed Blake designed the Park’s walking trails and other landscape components. Highlights of the weekend include an artist panel and creative musical entertainment selected by the Kinetic Project.
