Olympic Sculpture Park

The Olympic Sculpture Park is relatively new compared to the other parks in the city since it only opened in the 20th of January 2007. Still, it is able to attract several locals and tourists because of the beach and the outdoor sculpture museum. The Seattle Art Museum helped in making the park when it proposed that the spot where it is located should be turned into the only green space in the area of Downtown Seattle.

One may enter the park from bottom or from top, starting from either the western avenue pavilion or the waterfront walkway. In any case, the experience would be different from the other, each welcoming the visitor in its unique way.

Some of the pieces at the park include Neukom Vivarium By Mark Dion, Typewriter Eraser, Scale X by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen, Bunyon's Chess By Mark di Suvero among many others.

The Olympic sculpture park is more striving than a lot of other major landmarks because it thrives at an impudent idea that is, it acknowledges the fact that life in the city is inherently chaotic and muddled, however, by intermingling art and nature into it, this clutter becomes overwhelmingly rewarding.
