Sculptour

As the name suggests, Sculptour: an Experiential Fieldtrip to Roche Court was a chance to get out of London and experience sculpture in the garden and fields of a stately home. We learned on our tour (hosted by the New Art Centre) about what in particular sets Roche Court as a sculpture park apart. Access is free but all the work is for sale, making this Lancashire attraction a destination for art tourists and collectors alike. How relaxing it was to ramble among works by Anthony Caro, Rachel Whiteread, Des Hughes and others, snapping tourist shots of each other next to the sculptures and interacting with them where appropriate.
