May Tour - Bronze in Motion

Join Landmarks for a free public tour of works in the collection that are made of bronze. Utilized for its strength and durability, bronze has long been the medium of choice for large-scale sculpture and monuments. This tour will explore how artists in the collection utilize the material and respond to its long history.

The tour will meet at the Martin Luther King Jr. memorial statue on the East Mall and will include Magdelena Abakanowicz’s Figure on a Trunk, Fredrick Kiseler’s Winged Victory, and David Hare’s The Swan's Dream of Leda, among others.
