Jean-Michel Othoniel Sculpture Debuts At Conservatory Of Flowers

Visitors passing by the Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park yesterday may have noticed a curious golden sprout in the bed of begonias and snapdragons. The new gold aluminum sculpture, “La Rose Des Vents,” is the work of French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel; its name translates to “compass rose,” or literally, “wind rose.”
