Collection: Sculpture Garden

The Sheldon Sculpture Garden provides an historical representation of sculpture from the early 20th century to the present. Originally the garden, dedicated in 1970, occupied 2 1/2 acres adjacent to Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery. Since that time outstanding sculptures have been installed across the University of Nebraska-Lincoln City and East campuses, providing students, staff and visitors access and interaction to outstanding works of art.

Artists represented in the collection include: Tom Otterness, Gaston Lachaise, William Zorach, Juan Hamilton, Mark di Suvero, Richard Serra, Roxy Paine and Claes Oldenberg and Coosje van Bruggen.

A map of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus showing locations and offering information about the outdoor sculptures is available here: Map Showing Campus Sculptures

A brochure with images and information about all the outside sculptures is available at Sheldon and other visitor centers on campus. A PDF copy of the brochure may be downloaded here: Sculpture Brochure

A podcast tour of the sculptures, which lasts about 16 minutes, is available at this link: Sculpture Tour Podcast
