The Public Art of Suzhou

Suzhou, or at least the Suzhou Industrial Park, is salt and peppered with pieces of artwork in its public spaces.  Most of the art pieces are statues of people or animals or insects.  Other pieces are more difficult to recognize, which I guess makes them sculpture.

Here are a couple of examples.  Above are some park benches that sit outside the Cultural Center building.  (aka...the ""Bird's Nest").  Below is an example from Hubin Park on JinJi Lake.

I'll put up more examples from time to time.  There are a lot of these things around.  And they make for quick and easy blog posts when things are otherwise dull.
