What Celia Saw........
10th June 2012On yet another trip to Chatsworth House, a walk around the gardens revealed the work of Sir Anthony Caro. Large scale sculptures from the last 30 yrs were placed around the fountain lake with tantilising glimpes of steel through emaculately clipped hedges.
The juxtoposition of the hard lines and rusting metals softened against the flowing landscape of the surrounding hills and natural forms of trees, allowing the visitor time to look and be apart of these conflicting structures, giving rise to passing comments about what art is and whether this type of work has relevance to the wider general public outside of the regular exhibition space.
