Photographs from a visit to Yorkshire Sculpture Park in mid-May. Sitting Lady Hare in 2 sections. A galvanised wire sculpture by Sophie Ryder. This reminded me of another great sculptor with a love of hares, Barry Flanagan, some of whose work can normally be seen at the Roche Court sculpture park near Salisbury. |

The excellent visitor reception/gallery space/cafe designed by Feilden Clegg Bradley (FCB Studios), completed in 2002. |

Part of a sculpture by Nigel Hall in COR-TEN weathering steel in front of the of the Underground Gallery (FCB Studios, 2004), looking towards the west end of the visitor centre. Most of Hall’s work, including a lot of sketchbook doodling, left me singularly unimpressed although I did feel slightly more sympathetic to some of his recent steelwork that is exhibited in the grounds of the YSP. |
