Description
Leading modernist sculptor Barbara Hepworth (1903-75) moved to beautiful St Ives, Cornwall with her husband Ben Nicholson and their children in 1939. She lived and worked in Trewyn Studio – which, along with the garden, is now Tate’s Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden – from 1949 until her death in 1975. The garden there offered the perfect setting to showcase her sculptures, and most of the bronzes remain in the positions in which the artist herself placed them. This wall calendar features 12 views revealing the magical symbiosis between artworks and garden, as they nestle among the lush foliage afforded by the mild Cornish climate. Informative text accompanies each photograph and the datepad features previous and next month’s views. Printed on FSC-certified paper, with plastic-free packaging.
