Madison Square Park Conservancy's Mad. Sq. Art announces a new sculptural installation for fall 2013 by renowned Italian artist Giuseppe Penone, consisting of three monumental, 40-foot tall bronze trees. Ideas of Stone, featuring Penone's signature manipulation of the trees' natural forms, will interact with Madison Square Park's lush landscape to highlight the relationships amongst man, sculpture and nature.

The three works are titled Triplice (Triple), Idee di pietra – 1303 Kg di luce (Ideas of stone – 1303 Kg of light), and Idee di pietra – Olmo (Ideas of stone – Elm). The installation will remain on view daily from September 26, 2013 through February 9, 2014 in the Park.
