National Trusts Hidcote to host major sculpture exhibition

More than 200 sculptures by nearly 50 artists will be displayed in the National Trust garden and manor house, located near Chipping Camden, from September 1 to November 2.

Visitors can explore the wide variety of artworks, made from materials including marble, gold and glass.

The pieces cover themes such as the environment, sustainability and human nature, with many inspired by the natural world.

Hidcote’s visitor operations and experience manager, Rose Futers, said: “We’re thrilled to bring something completely new to Hidcote, and can’t wait for visitors to experience the garden from a different perspective.

“These stunning works of art complement the iconic borders and vistas Hidcote is so well known for, while at the same time standing out against them, each one inspiring the viewer in its own unique way.”

The exhibition is curated by David Waghorne and Kate McGovern from Sculpture Events, and features both local and internationally acclaimed sculptors.

All the works will be available for sale after the exhibition.
