Descripción de la Organización

Walker Art Center presents contemporary visual arts and design exhibitions; dance, theater, and music performances; and film screenings. One of the most internationally celebrated art museums, the multidisciplinary Walker Art Center in Minneapolis is known for presenting today’s most compelling artists from the United States and around the world. In addition to presentations of works from its world-renowned collection, the Walker organizes and hosts exhibitions that travel worldwide and annually presents a broad array of contemporary performance, music, dance, theater, design, moving image, and education programs. The adjacent Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, one of the country’s first urban sculpture parks, features at its center a beloved Twin Cities landmark—Spoonbridge and Cherry by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen—as well as some 40 sculptures by multigenerational artists from Minnesota and around the globe on the 19-acre Walker campus. Visit walkerart.org for more information on the Walker’s upcoming events and programs. Inside the walls of ... the Walker are gallery spaces, a performing arts theater, a cinema, rooftop terraces, several rental spaces, and a restaurant, Esker Grove.

Hahn/Cock by German artist Katharina Fritsch is a nearly 25-foot sculpture of a blue rooster, a symbol of pride, power and macho prowess, the name is a tongue and cheek play on its double meaning. There are currently 60 sculptures installed in the Garden and Walker campus; the Walker maintains these artworks, but the Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Board is responsible for maintaining the park grounds and other amenities.
