I read the following article by Caroline Roux in the FT this past weekend and I'm longing to discover both the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in Yorkshire and Ursula von Rydingsvard's sculptures.
Ursula von Rydingsvard is almost as little-known in Britain as she is celebrated in the US. There, her enormous art works, created out of hundreds of glued and sculpted cedar planks, are dotted throughout the country - in the collections of the Met and MoMA in New York; in the generous grounds of Microsoft's original HQ in Redmond, Washington; and in such private hands as those of collector Steve Oliver in Sonoma...
Next month, however, a major show of her work comes to Yorkshire Sculpture Park, a rolling estate of 500 landscaped acres in northern England that already houses an array of important outdoor works...
