    Happily Stuck in the Land Art at the Menil Collection

    Modified: Dec 6, 2020 by Jill Jarvis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · #sponsoredpost · Leave a Comment

    Address: 1533 Sul Ross St, Houston, TX 77006

    We've been in this same zig zag since mid-March but we're doing fine. (No really, we have been in this zig zag at the Menil Collection.)

    With our playground closed, we've been visiting Houston's murals and public art. And we've spent a lot of time around the Land Art at Menil Collection!

    This Land Art is by Artist Michael Heizer and includes Isolated Mass/Circumflex (#2), Dissipate and Rift, 1968/1978. Learn all about the work HERE.

    You can find them in the grass in front of the main Menil Collection building and in the rocks to the side of the Menil Drawing Institute.

    The Menil Collection is currently closed, but the outdoor spaces are open and have been very popular while everyone has been home. You can see the outdoor art, hang out at the Menil Park and in the green space by the Drawing Institute. There are a lot of scooters, bikes, walkers, picnic blankets, ball throwers and visitors these days (but there is a lot of space to keep your distance).

    There is free parking in the lots and on the street.
