Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park staging new exhibition

The Sculptures in the Landscape Exhibition will run for seven months at the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park near Ripon.

Visitors will be able to explore the Exhibition’s sculptures, set within 45 acres of woodland and gardens, alongside a permanent collection of 90 contemporary sculptures.

Will Roberts, trustee of the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park, said: “It’s fantastic to see how our annual sculpture exhibition has grown in popularity and that we are drawing artists from as far as Hong Kong.

“The addition of Michael Lyons work is also a great honour, and we are looking forward to welcoming visitors to the garden to enjoy them all.”

The exhibition will open to the public on Thursday, April 2, and will feature pieces made from a variety of materials, including ceramics, glass and forged steel.

It will also feature more unusual choices such as recycled compressed polystyrene from the fish markets of Hong Kong.

Nine large works from the Michael Lyons collection, honouring the founding member of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and vice-president of the Royal British Society of Sculptors, will also be on display.
