Wakehurst, a wild botanic garden located in West Sussex, is set to unveil a series of sculptures by the esteemed British artist Henry Moore. This exhibition will showcase four of Moore's iconic pieces alongside newly commissioned works by contemporary artists affiliated with the Henry Moore Institute. The initiative aims to foster a dialogue between art and nature, with a spokesperson from Wakehurst expressing excitement about hosting these sculptures, which embody themes of care, protection, and conservation. Eva Owen, the programme manager at Wakehurst, highlighted the importance of these themes in today's context. Moore, who created over 1,100 sculptures during his lifetime, is celebrated for works such as the Reclining Figure series and Knife Edge Two Piece. Sebastiano Barassi, head of Henry Moore collections and programmes, noted that Moore's profound connection to the natural world makes the settings of Wakehurst and Kew Gardens particularly fitting for his art. The exhibition is designed to encourage visitors to contemplate nature, humanity, and environmental issues, which are increasingly relevant today. The sculptures will be unveiled on Friday and will remain on display until September 27, 2023.
