As summer approach, New York slowly has been rearrange by Europeans over the last few weeks. This is exactly ‘’Moore in America’’ – a exhibition which opens in the New York Botanical Garden and is the largest outdoor collection of his work. The place is very attractive and peaceful. It’s good idea to spend a summer afternoon, as well as a museum in itself, one of flora.

By bringing the art in the garden people will noticed that these kinds of gardens are in themselves works of art. They have been designed and constructed in much the same spirit.

Moore, who died in 1986, “Sculpture is an art of the open air,” he once said. “And for me its best setting and complement is nature. I would rather have a piece of my sculpture put in a landscape, almost any landscape, than in, or on, the most beautiful building I know.”

Besides At the time, many of the pieces were included in the larger show of Moore’s work that opened last year at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, in southwest London — appropriately, perhaps, given that those historic gardens were the inspiration for the one that was founded in the Bronx in 1891. (After the New York show closes on Nov. 2, the pieces will head to the Atlanta Botanical Garden, completing a kind of greatest-hits international garden tour.)

”Moore in America” opens on Saturday and continues through Nov. 2 at the New York Botanical Garden, Bronx River Parkway and Fordham Road, the Bronx; (718) 817-8700, nybg.org.
