Citygarden Hollow Head - Eros Bendato

This is a great place to cool off with a big splash park and wading pool, so have the kids bring suits and towels. There were many outdoor sculptures and they provided maps with backgrounds on the artist and inspiration for the pieces.

Hollow Head - Eros Bendato

Citygarden is a free, city-created three-acre park of paved paths, foliage and public sculpture. Within view of the Gateway Arch, Citygarden includes a man-made waterfall, reflecting pool, and a spray plaza. There are 23 pieces of numbered art/sculpture described in the guided map.

"Eros Bendato" is a large head sculpture by artist Igor Mitorag, on permanent display. The head is hollow, and you can walk inside and peek out the eye-nose-mouth holes.
