Welcome two new art pieces to the grounds of the Ney in Fall family style!
Bring the kids to the Museum for the new Fall Family Fun Day, Saturday November 12, when visitors will have the opportunity to officially welcome Humpty Dumpty to the Ney site! A temporary visitor, Humpty Dumpty was crafted by Austin artist Yuliya Lanina. The charming, bobbing, musically-inclined anthropomorphic egg makes for both a gender switch and a colorful addition to the museum’s West entrance.
Visitors will also be able to greet a remarkable replica of Elisabet’s famed self-portrait, created with 3-D subtractive manufacturing techniques and rendered in materials that will sparkle at night, evoking Elisabet’s penchant for sleeping under the stars. Ney Remixed is also a temporary installation, created by Lisa Woods and Rodolfo Magnus. Both pieces are part of the City of Austin Cultural Arts Division’s Art in Public Places TEMPO program, and this is their official opening! We’ll have refreshments and sculpting activities, storytelling, face painting, and much more. See you then!
