New sources edit
Hello. Apologies for my lack of response. To be fair, I was actually out of the country presenting at Wikimania when this was being discussed, and I'm still getting back into the swing of things. While I have a major event coming up this weekend and cannot do the editing myself, I have a number of third party sources that this article requires. I agree that the sources are not very good and it was verging on laziness to not google this and find these sources in the first place. Though I'll say that this was a newbie editor doing a great job for their first article.
This paragraph from the Indianapolis Museum of Art article contains a handful of sources, and there are a good many more that I have pdf versions of on my computer. Just can't get to it yet. Please do not delete the article. (Though the image should be removed, as its not uploaded as fair use, as far as I know.) LoriLee (talk) 17:51, 18 August 2011 (UTC) (Formerly User:HstryQT)
100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art and Nature Park edit
June 20, 2010 marked the official opening[1] of a large-scale outdoor project undertaken by the IMA. Formerly a gravel pit,[2] 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art and Nature Park now encompasses a diverse landscape, including wooded areas, wetlands, open fields, a lake and a series of hiking trails that guide visitors past site-specific works of contemporary art.[3] 100 Acres is one of the largest art parks in the country and is the only park to feature an ongoing commission of temporary works.[4] The first eight artists selected to create site-responsive pieces were Atelier Van Lieshout, Kendall Buster, Alfredo Jaar, Jeppe Hein, Los Carpinteros, Tea Makipaa, Type A, and Andrea Zittel.[4] These works, along with an LEED certified visitor center, are linked by a variety of walking trails.[1]
