The Kroller Muller is famous also for its sculpture garden--a sculpture forest, really--and certainly more than we could view in an afternoon. The De Loge Veluwe National Park setting was gorgeous, in the Dutch highlands (above sea level), a mixed forest with mature rhododendrons in full bloom everywhere.

Actual mini-hills here and there |
|
Rodin's Femme Accroupie, 1882, was certainly
the oldest item in the collection |
|
Our favorite, of course, was Emile-Antoine
Bourdelle's La Grande Penelope, 1912 |
|
Aristide Maillol's L'Aire, 1944 |
|
Atop Jean Debuffet's Jardin d'Email, 1974 |

Mario Merz, Igloo di pietra, 1982; I liked this one |
|
Eugene Dodeigne, Homme et Femme, 1963 |
|
Cornelius Rogge, Tentenprojects, 1975; one of several in this display; we have seen things like this in British campgrounds |
|
A Christo, of course: 56 Barrels, 1968-77 |
|
And then a whole line-up of human heads with animal horns, the artist's name for which I failed to get... |
|
We were having too much fun |
|
Thus |

The last piece was actually outside the museum, and we debated whether it was art or part of the HVAC system: Bertrand Lavier's Prive sure Mobi, 1968; why not both? |
