The Western Washington University Outdoor Sculpture Collection is a public sculpture collection[1] founded in 1960.[2][3] The collection contains thirty-six public sculptures[4] spanning 190 acres of the Western Washington University campus.[3]

History

In 1957, the board of trustees of Western Washington University established a policy that encouraged public art on the campus.[4] The first work added to the collection, commissioned by Paul Thiry,[5] was James Fitzgerald's Rain Forest, in 1960.[4]

Campus architect Ibsen Nelsen commissioned Isamu Noguchi's "Skyviewing Sculpture" in the 1960s.[5]

Funding for the acquisition of the works in the collection came from a combination of sources that included the state's one percent for art law, The Virginia Wright Fund,[6] and the National Endowment for the Arts

[7]

The collection is overseen by the director of the university's Western Art Gallery. As of 2015, the director of the collection is Hafþór Yngvason.[8]
