The Source, Bronze sculpture at Lynden Sculpture Garden, Milwaukee, US
The Source is a bronze sculpture located within the Lynden Sculpture Garden grounds in Milwaukee. The work stands among trees and rolling terrain that form the natural setting of the garden.
The sculpture was created in 1964 by Canadian artist Sorel Etrog during a period of active artistic exploration. This was a time when the artist was developing new approaches to sculptural form and composition.
The Lynden Sculpture Garden collection includes over 50 monumental sculptures from notable artists, representing different movements in contemporary art.
The garden grounds are open daily and feature walking paths that connect visitors to the sculptures scattered throughout the landscape. Comfortable shoes are recommended since the terrain is rolling and paths vary in how directly they lead to each artwork.
Artist Sorel Etrog was known for abstract sculptural language, and The Source demonstrates this experimental approach clearly. The work combines organic and geometric elements in a way that invites viewers to walk around it and discover new perspectives from different angles.
