International Sculpture
The reason for having the two categories of public
art and international sculpture is because the approaches
to the photographs have been rather different.
International sculpture photographs shown here
are supposed to be an exploration of the intent
of the piece, less to do with any public awareness
that it might have
Martynas Mažvydas Sculpture Park in Klaipeda, Lithuania is on the
site of a previous cemetery, laid out in 1977 in honour of the writer
of the first book in the Lithuanian language (1547). Between 1977
and 1991 116 different sculptures were placed in the park and since
the independence of Lithuania have been allowed to remain in place
as a testament to the work and style of artists of the Soviet era.
Most of the sculptures have been carved from granite, including
this one: Walking woman by A. Šnaras (1986)
