Description
Valerie Fletcher records the little-known history of the Hirshhorn Museum's garden and plaza, and provides a succinct overview of one hundred years of subjects and styles as represented in the Hirshhorn's sculpture collection. Her essay is followed by sumptuous photographs of the sculptures, which show the garden's changes through the seasons.
