March 11, 2014–A triangular-shaped, glass-walled labyrinth designed by acclaimed artist and Kansas City native Robert Morris is being installed in the Donald J. Hall Sculpture Park at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. This dynamic sculpture will provide visitors with an intimate experience, enticing them to interact with the art by winding through the glass maze. The installation of Glass Labyrinth in the southeast section of the park marks the start of a six-month long celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Donald J. Hall Sculpture Park.

安装玻璃迷宫开始了一系列的庆祝雕塑公园，将包括家庭活动，教育计划和特别活动。这座占地22英亩的公园多年来一直受到霍尔先生的支持，他敏锐的目光和勤勉的管理能力，让这座公园成为堪萨斯城的一项重要资产，成为许多人的户外旅游目的地。

The installation of Glass Labyrinth begins a series of celebrations of the Sculpture Park that will include family activities, educational programs and special events. The 22-acre park has been championed through the years by Mr. Hall, whose keen eye and diligent stewardship have allowed the grounds to become a stellar asset to Kansas City and an outdoor destination for many.

“迷宫是我们为了发现自己而迷失自我的地方，这个想法很有趣，”策展事务主任安东尼娅·博斯特伦(Antonia Bostr M)说。这座雕塑包含了许多东西：参与、戏剧精神，同时也推动了艺术对象与个人体验之间的界限。

“The idea of a labyrinth as a place in which we lose ourselves in order to find ourselves is intriguing,” said Antonia Boström, Director, Curatorial Affairs. “This sculpture encompasses many things: engagement, participation, a spirit of theatricality, and also pushes boundaries between an art object and personal experience.”

虽然迷宫是一个看似简单的结构，但它的创造需要一个非常庞大的团队和很大的聪明才智才能看到它的实现。去年秋天，在史蒂夫·沃特曼、纳尔逊-阿特金斯主任的领导下，该项目开始施工，并与罗伯特·莫里斯的工程师埃里希·布洛姆设计合作。一批80多人的工作人员从事雕塑的实体建设，还有一批地方和国家公司参与了规划和开发工作。

While the labyrinth is a deceptively simple structure, its creation required a very large team and much ingenuity to see its realization. Construction began on the project last fall, under the leadership of Steve Waterman, Nelson-Atkins Director, Presentation and in collaboration with Erich Blohm Design, engineer for Robert Morris. A crew of more than 80 worked on the physical construction of the sculpture, with an additional crew of local and national companies involved in the planning and development.
