The Fran and Ray Stark Sculpture Garden

Located at the foot of the hill, at the tram departure area where visitors first enter the Getty Center, is a concentration of British sculpture, including Elisabeth Frink's Horse and Running Man and Henry Moore's Bronze Form and Draped Reclining Mother and Baby, as well as American and Spanish sculpture such as Isamu Noguchi's Tent of Holofernes, and Peter Shelton's bronzenightshirt, and Joan Miró's Figure.

In 2005, the Getty Center received a significant gift of 28 modern sculptures from the collection of legendary film producer Ray Stark and his wife, Fran. In 2007, The Getty Center marked its 10th anniversary with the permanent installation of these new and important works by many of the 20th century’s greatest sculptors.
