Lines of Conflict

About

As we approach the centenery year of the World War I conflicts, Scarborough Museums Trust invited The Yorkshire Sculptor's Group to explore the very nature of conflict. Some artists have responded directly with works inspired by the Great War others have explored conflict in its many forms. All have produced a collection of sculptures using a range of media that we hope will please yet provoke thought and discussion amongst visitors to the Gallery. The Yorkshire Sculptor's Group consists of around 20 members from throughout the Yorkshire region.
