dbo:abstract
  • Der Emile Brunel Sculpture Garden and Studio, oder auch als Totem Indian Trading Post und Brunel Park bekannt, ist ein Skulpturengarten mit drei Gebäuden und sieben Skulpturen an der Da Silva Road in , New York. Brunel war ein französischer Einwanderer und Künstler, der sich während seiner Reisen im Westen der Vereinigten Staaten am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts für die Kunst der Indianer faszinierte. Nach einer erfolgreichen Laufbahn als Fotograf kaufte er ein Stück Land in den Catskills und erbaute darauf eine Ferieneinrichtung, das mit Skulpturen dekoriert war, deren Stil sich an der orientierte. Die Einrichtung wurde geschlossen, als die Route 28 am Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs verbreitert wurde, doch der Skulpturengarten blieb erhalten und eine populäre Attraktion am Wegesrand. 1929 hatte sich Brunel ein Haus mit Atelier auf dem Grundstück gebaut. Der Stil orientierte sich an den europäischen Bauernhäusern, was architektonisch für diese Gegend sehr ungewöhnlich war. Seine Frau und seine Tochter unterhielten den Skulpturengarten auch nach dem Tod Brunels im Jahr 1944 und betrieben bis 1985 einen Andenkenladen. Das Haus des Künstlers und dessen Studio sind historisch intakt und wurden 1999 dem National Register of Historic Places hinzugefügt. (de)
  • The Emile Brunel Sculpture Garden and Studio, also known as the Totem Indian Trading Post, Le Chalet Indien, and Brunel Park, is located on Da Silva Road, just off the NY 28 state highway, in Boiceville, Town of Olive, New York, United States. It consists of seven sculptures and three buildings. Brunel was a French immigrant and artist who had become fascinated by the Native American tribes of the West during his travels there in the early 20th century. After a successful career as a photographer he bought a tract of land in the Catskills and built a studio residence and a resort on it, decorated with sculptures inspired by the Native American art he had seen. The resort closed and the statues were relocated soon thereafter when Route 28 was widened through it at the end of World War II, but the sculpture garden remained a popular roadside attraction afterwards. In 1929 Brunel began construction of a studio residence on the site in the "neo-rustic" or French Arts and Craft style. His wife and daughter (both named Gladyse) kept the sculpture garden maintained after his death in 1944, operating a nearby souvenir shop until 1985. The artist's home and studio remain intact, and were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. (en)

  • Four white sculptures sit in a grassy clearing in the woods, with a bush with dark pink flowers in the middle. Two are Native Americans wearing a single feather in bands at the rear of their head, holding a hand out and looking skyward. The one in the foreground stands while the one in the rear is seated. The other sculptures are a white column at the right rear and a baby unicorn and a giant frog at the left. There is a tall pine grove in the background. (en)
