Telling the story of key public art created between 1945 and 1985, including site-specific sculptures and reliefs by pioneering artists Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore and Geoffrey Clarke.

About

Celebrating England's fascinating yet forgotten national collection of public art, the exhibition follows the fates and fortunes of site-specific sculptures and reliefs. Including the work of pioneering artists such as Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore and Geoffrey Clarke, we explore why post war public art matters, how it might be looked after better and what we can all do to help save it.
