Guided Tours of Andy Goldsworthy’s “Tree Fall” | Presidio

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Take a docent-led tour of Tree Fall, Andy Goldsworthy’s latest installation in the Presidio. Located in the historic Powder Magazine, Tree Fall is comprised of a tree trunk removed during Doyle Drive construction, suspended from the ceiling and covered with clay that has dried and cracked into an organic pattern.

The piece may be viewed during weekend drop-in hours, or weekdays by appointment (415-561-5300). Saturday is the final scheduled tour of 2013; tours will resume in January 2014.

Located on Anza Avenue inside the historic Powder Magazine (Building 95), east of the Main Parade Ground.

Tree Fall is Andy Goldsworthy’s third Presidio art installation and the first one to be created indoors. Its backdrop is the historic Powder Magazine, constructed on the Main Post during the Civil War. The petite structure protected gun powder and munitions and is made up of four-foot-thick stone walls.
