Chianti Sculpture Park

The Chianti Sculpture Park is a collection of site-specific sculptures and installations created by artists from over 25 countries in a mystical wooded area of 7 hectares. The park is located in Tuscany about 7 miles north of Siena, a territory famous worldwide for its beautiful hilly landscape, its vineyards, and the evergreen olive groves and cypress trees.One of the characteristics of the park is the diversity of cultures, represented by artists from all over the world who employ a great variety of materials. Each artist has been invited to visit the wood in order to choose a location and subsequently submit a site-specific proposal.This accounts for the harmony of the sculptures with the trees, the sounds, the colors, the light, and other elements of the wood. In fact, these man-made works do not extend beyond the limits of nature; rather, they integrate with it and enhance it.
