Cover Feature - February 2007

Olympic Sculpture Park - Art Lovers Admire Sculptures,
Design and Construction Also a Seattle Masterpiece

Photos by Jason Carter and Lucy Bodilly

Seattle Cloud Cover, a piece by Teresita Fernandez doubles as the bridge over the Burlington Railroad Tracks. Contractors used an earth stabilized wall to support the artwork and the pathway.



Eagle by Aleander Calder perfectly frames the Space Needle.




Singer, by Tony Smith, will eventually be shaded by trees, which will change the piece's sense of scale.




Sellen Construction put finishing touches on the project, which was delayed by the Operating Engineers Strike and harsh winter weather.




Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi attended the press briefing for the park and called the park their "dream project."
