Grace Knowlton’s sculpture 6 Copper Spheres (1990–1999) is located between the Library and DeKalb Hall, near Hall St.

Knowlton has been creating spherical combines for many years. Her extensive studio grounds in Rockland County are covered with large panoplies of these forms in various clusters. The base materials vary: clay, cement, metal, collage, found objects, each sphere with its own individualized nature, but acting in unison.

A number of roughly fashioned copper spheres that have turned grey-green with age.

5. Lions at the Gate (2001) - Wendy Klemperer

Wendy Klemperer's sculpture Lions at the Gate (2001) is located to the southwest of the Library, near Hall St.

The pervading imagery of Klemperer's work reflects a lifelong fascination with animals. Her large-scale sculptures are often constructed from salvaged industrial refuse ravaged by demolition, transformed to contain energy and new life. The welding process is reminiscent of a gesture drawing—the skeletal, steel lines contain both presence and absence. The body language of these animals expresses a feeling or state of being, with motion conveying emotion. Lions at the Gate references heraldic lions, from medieval times back to the lion gate of Mycenae.

Two feline figures, rampant, as if fighting, made of wielded steel that has the appearance of a gesture drawing.

6. Picnic Table (1999) - Siah Armajani

Siah Armajani’s sculpture Picnic Table (1999) is located near the entrance to the library.

Mark di Suvero's sculpture Paintbrush (2009) is between the Library and DeKalb Hall.

In 2015, Mark di Suvero began working on a series of sculptures that draw inspiration from the cut-outs of the French artist, Henri Matisse. One of these sculpture is Paintbrush. The playful potential for imminent change contained in its bowing curvilinear structure recalls the mutable paper and thumbtacks used by Matisse for continuous alterations.

This work, titled S7 was a part of seven monumental sculptures installed along the median of Park Avenue in New York City in 2015. The artist’s name has been most closely associated with his celebrated architectural designs of bridges and transportation centers built throughout the world, including the “Oculus” World Trade Center Transportation Hub in New York completed in 2016. Additionally, he has exhibited at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (2005), The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg (2012), and the Vatican Museum in Rome (2013). In reference to this series of prodigious sculptures Calatrava said “their relation to the natural world suggests a link between man and nature, implying the sculptures are found objects in a human forest.” Calatrava received an honorary doctorate of fine arts from Pratt Institute in 2012, conferred in recognition of his achievements as an architect, artist, and engineer.

13. Skylark (2005) - David Henderson

David Henderson’s Skylark (2005) is located across from the Main Building, between the Library and Ryerson Walk.

Skylark has certain artistic precedents in oversized pop art monuments, but here the non-referential aspect of the piece allows us to enjoy the gracious curved surfaces with semi-opalescent light. Held, seemingly tenuous on the curve of the tree, it has a bird-like lift, as referred to in its title. The clever engineering takes us from one full volume to an attenuated shaft . . . and then to another blossoming form above.

A tall, cylindrical sculpture leaning against a tree. It resembles a double-sided shuttlecock, narrow towards the center, with two conical ends that flair.

Much of Averbuch’s work starts in books—ideas, images, and literal references that end up as sculptures. This work represents his relationship to books—the artist’s subjective intellectual heritage and ambivalence.

Rectangular stones arranged to look like a book lying on its spine with pages fanned, and long, vertical pieces of metal stuck through the pages.

15. Epistrophy, Straight No Chaser, Round Midnight (2004) - Richard Heinrich

22. Uplifting (2000) - Sandy Macleod

Sandy Macleod's sculpture Uplifting (2000) is located between the ISC Building and the Library. 

Uplifting consists of found architectural and industrial objects, giving a voice to the remnants of urban landscapes that were once an integral part of our environment and economic world, but are now abandoned in the wasteland of industry. Heavy with their own histories and references, the repurposed contemporary composition of these otherwise seemingly useless pieces evokes a new appreciation of their strong aesthetic qualities.

Winter. Snow on the ground. A sculpture comprised of two metal supports in the form of a V. The left support features what like two pinwheels made of wooden beams. From the right support hangs a large, rectangular concrete form.
