Alexander Liberman was born in Russia in 1912. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the early 1930's. At 18 he became art editor of the French magazine Vu, working there from 1932 to 1936. With the Louvre, he made one of the first color films on painting, "La Femme Française." And in 1937 he won a Gold Medal at the Paris International Exhibition—prophetically, for his presentation on magazine design. . He joined the staff of Conde Nast in 1941 and before long became the Art Director. Liberman began his career in art as a painter and a photographer, turning to sculpture in the 1950's. Now a world-renowned artist, his sculpture can be seen in all the great venues of the world. Pyramid Hill includes three of Liberman's works: Laocoon constructed from welded steel in 1982, Torre II and the massive Abracadabra, each made of painted steel and created in 1989 and 1992, respectively Four years later Liberman came to New York and joined Vogue.
I have been inspired by these large pieces even with the distinct edges they seem to flow so effortlessly with the surroundings. Alexander Liberman inspired more people than we can count from his magazines to his art and paintings, he has made me look at art in a different way and I hope you can come to enjoy all of the art at Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park!!!
I hope that my blogs inspire you to take the trip to our park. You will not be disappointed. I believe that Pyramid Hill is the best Art Park in the world.
A few quotes I found about the park:
we went expecting to see a few statues and stay in the car most of the time... but we were wrong! I loved our trip to
"Pyramid Hill. All the art is really creative and they even have a selection of Really old statues(ancient Egypt and Greece). Over all this really exceeded my expectations." (Review from tripadvisor)
Located in Hamilton, this park of winding paths and wooded trails leads you into a world where art lives in harmony with nature. Internationally renowned artists featured at Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park include Michael A. Dunbar and Jon Isherwood. Sculptures range from classical works of human form, to blocks of stone and bronze. Come over a hill to discover an abstract block of color, or wander into a meadow to come upon a muscled, classical figure.

Abracadabra is one of the largest sculptures in the park. Many brides love it and use it for weddings.
It’s also Harry Wilks Favorite.

Shadows from the sculpture alter and change throughout the day making it look different every time you look at it
