Description
The Barbara Hepworth Sculpture Garden is a beautifully produced book showcasing the garden in St Ives throughout the seasons. New photography and updated information from the Head Gardener, Jodi Dickinson, bring this unique combination of sub-tropical garden and sculpture museum to life. Barbara Hepworth's studio at Trewyn in St Ives was a haven of peace where she worked, showcased her sculpture, and pursued her love of gardening. This book is a comprehensive record of the plants and sculptures at Trewyn through the seasons, exploring the relationship between Hepworth's sculpture and the natural forms that surround them. Texts from art historian Chris Stephens and Miranda Phillips contextualise the work of Hepworth and the decisions made to create one of the most famous artists' gardens in the world. With full descriptions of both plants and sculptures, this book is a beautiful souvenir of the garden.
