In an unusual park you can see nine of creative works, made of granite. Their creators - the participants Vyborg sculpture symposium in 1988.

The choice of subjects for his works of sculptors helped acquaintance with the artistic traditions of the old Vyborg, with the nature of the Vyborg region, the features of the rocky terrain and bodies of water. Human figures in some cases interpreted by them in the genre situations. Conventional forms and generalized stresses that the images do not represent photographic impressions of nature, are either interpreted as an artistic image of the literary hero in any way creative work, rest.
Some notable monotony and passivity of sitting, lying and kneeling figures, also represented virtually no pedestals, in most cases, reduces their visual perception. Also, a negative role in the formation of the park was the fact that the park before you install it in the sculpture has not been prepared specifically for this purpose. Activities landscaping were not carried out even after the sculptors were arranged randomly, without any premeditated plan. However, the construction of new lanes installed benches, broken flower beds, flower beds and additional landscaping could well revitalize and enhances the overall colorful picture.
Despite this, Vyborg sculpture symposium has become an important event in the cultural and artistic life of the city, taking into account, mainly, the fact that the monuments and monumental sculpture park recently lost Vyborg greater than acquires.
