These old cranes decorated the Puerto Madero area in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My dad, an old crane engineer was thrilled to see them and kept saying what a good idea it was…and talking about how expensive it had been for the Port of Seattle to get rid of it’s cranes of the same vintage.

Another sculpture from Auckland Botanical Gardens, this one is a permanent fixture in the rose garden. The ones I posted previously are part of the Sculpture in the Gardens special exhibit (Hand in the Dirt, The Head of John Doe, and Bee Haven. )
Another sculpture from the Auckland Botanical Gardens. More uplifting than the one last week.

This is part of this year’s Sculpture in the Gardens at Auckland Botanical Gardens. It is by artist Jane Downes.

We were lucky enough to happen on the Sculpture in the Gardens while killing time waiting for our late night flight home. The Auckland Botanical Gardens were lovely and it was easy to get there using local buses. I’ll share a few more from this exhibit in the next few weeks.
This sculpture is called “Throwback”, by Neil Dawson. It is located in Auckland’s Albert Park, near the Auckland Art Gallery, for which is was commissioned for its centennial.
