A month ago I confirmed that the ARLIS visit to Sculpture at Goodwood, West Sussex, will take place on Saturday 11 May at 11am. Thank you to those of you who contacted me to book places, I'll be sending you your half-price (£5) admission vouchers by email next week. Do let me know during the week before the visit if you haven't received one. There's room for a few more people, so if the sunshine is tempting you to get get out into the countryside at weekends, then do let me know. To whet your appetite, here's a description from the website www.sculpture.org.uk "The showcase venue for Sculpture at Goodwood is Hat Hill Copse. These grounds are part of an area of outstanding natural beauty in West Sussex where carefully landscaped woodland reveals the countryside beyond, and, within some twenty acres provides sites for around forty five pieces of British Sculpture each uniquely commissioned by Sculpture at Goodwood. The Foundation's sales successes result in a constantly changing display." And in case you're wondering how relevant this is to art librarians: Tom Flynn writing in Blains Newsletter: "Sculpture at Goodwood has arguably done more to advance and promote contemporary British sculpture to an international audience than any other single endeavour. Founded as a charity by Wilfred and Jeanette Cass in 1992, Sculpture at Goodwood is now recognised around the world not only as a regularly changing display of ongoing sculptural activity, but as a rapidly growing archive and educational resource relating to the development of British sculpture. It has also become an invaluable resource for all those wishing to commission British sculpture, with a wealth of experience in the development and production of large-scale works."
