1. “THE DOORS” BY DONALD LIPSKIWhat would it be like to stand inside a kaleidoscope? Find out when you venture inside this monumental work created from three 28-foot-tall mirrored panels.

9. “LOVE” BY ROBERT INDIANAConceived when the United States was consumed by the Vietnam War, Indiana’s “Love” sculptures became a symbol for peace. The sculpture is a favorite spot for taking pictures with the one you love.

4. “BRONZE HORSE FOUNTAIN” BY BOB PARKSCreated by Bob Parks, who owned an art gallery in town for 30 years, this piece showcases the beauty of five Arabian horses as they play in the fountain’s water.

8. “KNIGHT RISE” BY JAMES TURRELLThis “skyspace” installation frames the sky as pure color and shows “the changing light of the sky, altering what we see with our own eyes.” The illusion created by this structure is most dramatic at sunrise and sunset.

3. “PASSING THE LEGACY” BY HERB MIGNERYThis life-size bronze depicts a vintage Pony Express rider and a contemporary Hashknife Pony Express rider handing off the mail to show the “Old West” meeting the “New West” in downtown Scottsdale.

10. “ IMAGINATION GIVES US WINGS” BY LARRY KIRKLANDA bird-shaped oculus in the roof of the library traces the movement of the sun as the bird “flies” across the entryway. A 20-foot-long gilded feather is suspended below as if it has fallen from the bird’s wing.

5. “JACK KNIFE” BY ED MELLThis giant bronze of a cowboy on a bucking bronco gives a nod to Scottsdale’s Western heritage and the city’s official seal. You can safely cross into the intersection to take pictures by the sculpture.
