Week 267

McCLELLAND GALLERY + SCULPTURE PARK
 

The venue for this week's images is situated in Langwarrin, some 40 km south of Melbourne's
city centre. The Gallery was established in 1971 and is named after Harry McClelland, artist
and philanthropist, who had a studio here and who owned the property. The park houses
about 60 sculptures by Australian sculptors and is claimed to be the country's leading venue
of its kind.

Please note that I have not given the titles and the artists' names, as the photos here are meant
merely to give you an idea of what is to be seen. I will be moving to Langwarrin at the end of
the month, and after that the Park will get more detailed coverage here.
