The Arts Society Arun Monthly Talk - Sculpture in Britain Today and Tomorrow

The Arts Society Arun, Worthing

Our talk this month is by Ray Warburton, who has had a lifelong love of art. British sculpture enjoyed a renaissance in the 20th century with Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth and Elizabeth Frink leading the way. But who came afterwards and with what effect? Whiteread, Gormley, Hamblin, Kapoor, Long and Nash. After examining their work, we review the adornments to the fourth plinth and the rising stars of British sculpture.
Doors open 9.30am. Everyone welcome. Guests £7 on the door. Coffee & biscuits available. Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. For more information, please email [email protected]
PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF USUAL VENUE FOR THIS MONTH'S TALK
