As plans progressed, IMA realized that the bridge, to be constructed from 600 tons of steel, would have an enormous impact on the natural environment, in conflict with the Park’s mission. The IMA and Mary Miss now are exploring other possible ways to collaborate, including an independent permanent sculpture that would address some of the environmental issues the artist has explored throughout her career. Visitors will have access to the Park using the historic Pony Truss pedestrian bridge and through two new pedestrian entrances on the north and south sides, which will allow for more circulation around the IMA’s entire campus."

I'm not a fan of the art rental approach downtown and I'm curious as to whether it will improve at the IMA. Above all, I was looking forward to using the bridge. It looked to be one of the most beautiful, compelling bridges in the country. A structure of which the city could be proud and find inspiration in. Deleting it and the other permanent structures is a huge disappointment. That being said, the IMA did a great job in selecting the first round of temporary pieces for the park, as I'm sure they will in the future. I also agree with the IMA that a lack of permanence will free artists to take bigger risks. I'm sure I will swallow my disappointment at the loss of the bridge and enjoy the Art and Nature Park.

The loss of the super-cool, mega-awesome bridge is a big loss in particular. I thought the original plan was pretty close to a home run. I guess fund raising must have lagged. We'll just have to see how things turn out. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend the session. I would have prioritize the bridge, then spent the remaining money on exhibits as funds allowed. Incorporating a mix of temporary works with the permanent ones wouldn't have been a bad tweak. I think pursuing an incrementalist approach to the original vision, perhaps incorporating this temporary work aspect, would be better than scaling back to the current plan. That's just my two cents.
