Proof That This Outdoor Art Museum Is The Real Jurassic Park

    "Art, uh... finds a way."

    Storm King Art Center is a 500 acre open-air art museum located in Mountainville, New York, approximately one hour north of Manhattan.

    Jurassic Park is an open-air theme park located on an isolated tropical island in South America called Isla Nublar that is inhabited by cloned dinosaurs.

    The similarities between the two are uncanny...

    1. They both offer scenic tours in beautiful outdoor settings

    "The Arch" is colossal 50-foot-high sculpture by modern master Alexander Calder, which greets visits upon entering the park.

    3. Wild adventures on rolling green hills

    Lynda Benglis' sculpture "Migrating Pedmarks" can have that effect on you. This sculpture, as well as a whole collection of her new and unseen work, is currently on view in Lynda Benglis: Water Sources.

    5. The attractions can be...overwhelming

    Menashe Kadishman's 1977 sculpture "Suspended" can be a bit intimidating... This gigantic steel sculpture appears to be defying gravity–just one push from crushing anyone underneath it.

    6. You can get up close and personal with the exhibits

    On view as part of Lynda Benglis: Water Sources, her new sculpture "Hills and Clouds" actually glows in the dark! Which we hear is an amazing sight on their moonlit walking tour.

    7. But you'll want to keep an eye on your crew as you explore

    We're still not sure what happened to Gabe.
