5 Jun
Summary
- Four Henry Moore sculptures displayed at Wakehurst botanic garden.
- Exhibition continues conversation between art and natural landscapes.
- Works remain on display until September 27th.
The wild botanic garden at Wakehurst is set to display a collection of four sculptures by the renowned British artist Henry Moore. These works will be presented alongside new commissions from artists associated with the Henry Moore Institute. The exhibition aims to foster a dialogue between art and nature, aligning with Wakehurst's conservation and research initiatives.
Henry Moore's affinity for the natural world makes Wakehurst and Kew Gardens ideal settings for his art. His career was deeply inspired by organic forms found in nature, such as bones, stones, and landscapes. This display invites visitors to contemplate humanity, the environment, and nature through a fresh perspective on Moore's legacy.
The sculptures at Wakehurst are scheduled to be unveiled on Friday and will be accessible to the public until September 27th. Kew Gardens also features a display of Moore's sculptures, which opened on May 9th, offering another opportunity to engage with the artist's prolific body of work.
