Goldwell Open Air Museum

Whilst I am reflecting on Echo Exhibition I am enjoying a book called 'Destination Art'. The installation in the ghost town of Rhyolite Nevada has blown me away. I so admire Charles Albert Szukalski's vision. On visiting from Belgium he became fascinated with the area. The ghostly figures placed in the Amargosa Valley based on the Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper (1498) is eerily splendid. The sculptures stand out against the desert telling a tale of the barren land deserted by man but holds a sense of peace. A place of reflection.
