CHANHASSEN, MINN.- The Minnesota Landscape Arboretum presents “Steelroots: Touching Earth & Sky,” a unique outdoor exhibition of 16 massive root forms, sculpted in steel by acclaimed Pennsylvania artist Steve Tobin. “Steelroots” opened April 16 and continues through January 2012. “We are pleased to host this major exhibition. The Arboretum is a perfect setting for Steve Tobin’s soaring and evocative root sculptures,” said Arboretum Director Ed Schneider. Tobin’s sculptures are a dramatic fusion of nature and art. “The landscape and sculptures will work in tandem to encourage visitors to see the wonders of nature as inspiration for my art,” said the artist. This is the first exhibition ever of Tobin’s Steelroots sculpture series in Minnesota, and only its second showing worldwide. (It was most recently displayed at Chicago’s Morton Arboretum.)
