Art Installation


The park also features public art commissioned by the City of Dublin. "Sirius," by artist Peter Voulkas, was completed in 1990 and is the largest and most ambitious work in bronze undertaken by Voulkos in his long and illustrious career.

Voulkos is best known for his ground-breaking work in ceramics. He was one of the first artists in the late 1950s to create large-scale sculptures out of clay. In the late '60s, he began to work with bronze and has continued over the years to create large-scale bronze works for major museums and public commissions across the United States.

 In the Bay Area, his bronzes can be seen at the Oakland Museum, San Francisco Hall of Justice, and the University Art Museum in Berkeley.
