Long Description:
The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art has created a sculpture garden across the street from its museum building, in a park called The Green at 435 S Tryon Street, Charlotte, NC, where it has placed several large mosaic sculptures. These are very well done pieces of artworks, identified as being created by artist Niki De Saint Phalle. Some either had no identification plaque or were placed where they were easily overlooked.

The Golf Player was created in 2001 and is stated to be 107.5 inch x 57 inch x 57 inch in size.
