Today, for the Blogging from A to Z Challenge and Wordless Wednesday, outdoor art installations from August of 2023 in North Bennington, Vermont. This is an annual event called NBOSS and what you are about to see are works from the past 20 plus years this event has been held.
Here are some samples of more than 40 art installations we viewed during a visit in early September of 2023 after attending Bennington's annual Garlic Festival.
Gomorrah, originally built in 2000 by Stephen Davidson, who died in a car accident in 2003 at the age of 37. Friends rebuilt the art in 2018 after a tractor-trailer accidentally knocked it down while backing down a driveway.

Fittingly called No. 2. I don't have the artist's name for this.

ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
I like Gomorrah best, as bricks are usually utilitarian, even with set in patterns.
ReplyDeleteThose are very interesting pieces.
ReplyDeleteThe No. 2 (pencil) and the angel of death are my favorites. The Trojan horse comes in as a close third. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteVery creative art works ~ love them all ~ hugs,
ReplyDeleteWishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

ReplyDeleteMy favorite here is Trojan Horse, but they are all excellent and inventive examples of outdoor art to be enjoyed in all seasons.
