The Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., will reopen its 1.4-acre grounds later this year following a revitalization project led by architect Hiroshi Sugimoto. The reopening features eight newly acquired sculptures by artists including Mark Grotjahn, Raven Halfmoon, Lauren Halsey, and Pedro Reyes. The project, which began in 2020, aims to modernize the garden's layout on the National Mall while integrating contemporary works into the permanent collection.
