Where could one put outsized works that were almost invariably abstract to give them a chance of seeming to mean something? In nature! Storm King Art Centre in New Windsor, NYcontains what is perhaps the largest collection of contemporary outdoor sculptures in the United States. Across Storm King’s open fields and rolling meadows are giant works by Sol LeWitt, Alice Aycock, Ursula von Rydingsvard; ensconced within the paths of a wood is smaller, earlier statuary by names grown obscure, as well as a weathered, trowel-nicked concrete slab by Mia Westerlund Roosen, a post-Minimalist sculptor well overdue for rediscovery.
