Yorkshire Sculpture Park

Paid a visit to the YSP on Saturday. It's a place I always find rewarding and inspirational. The Noguchi exhibition in the underground gallery didn't excite me too much unfortunately but I did enjoy Sophie Ryders sculptures outside by the Camellia house. They are large bronzes or galvanised wire sculptures of a mythical figure with a womans body and hares head. Also there is always an eclectic display around the park with work by Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Elisabeth Frink, Helen Escobedo and loads more including Eduardo Paolozzi well known to Londoners. I still reckon Andy Goldsworthy's exhibition last year is my favourite.
