Sculpture Walk in Del Mar

Naomi Nussbaum, Art and Design is the art consultant who has worked diligently to make this temporary public sculpture exhibition possible. Placing public art is a very complicated process that involves public input, a call for artists, a call for proposals, a final selection and then an always arduous installation. Works not only have to be by professionals of a high quality, but have to be safe for the public and enhancing of built environment.

The Del Mar Foundation partnered with the City of Del Mar to bring five new contemporary sculptures to highly visible locations in Del Mar’s downtown area for public display for the next 23 months beginning in July 2025. This is Phase II of the Program, following the inaugural exhibit (Phase I, 2021-2022). There are also permanently installed works in the city scape as well as a public art collection in Del Mar Plaza that includes international artists Barry Flanagan, Anthony Gromley and Tony Craig.

The works are for sale through the Del Mar Foundation.
