Next week we will be sending off our invitations to The Private View, If you're not on our mailing list then get signed up now. Our exclusive opening is on Friday 3rd May. A quick heads up on a couple of extra features at The Sculpture Garden this year. We open to the public with a riot of sculptural skills, The Sculpture Garden is putting on a chainsaw demonstration by Simon O’Rourke. Simon is one of the exhibiting artists and has been featured on Countryfile, commissioned by The Forestry Commission and was asked to take part in the next Game of Thrones campaign, promoting season eight of the popular TV series. Only18 artists from around the world were selected by HBO, who then sent them an original prop from the Game of Thrones series. What did he make from his dragon eggs...? Chainsaw demonstration by Simon will take place on Saturday 4th May, Starting at midday...until its finished! The Sculpture Garden, Odney Club, Odney Lane, Cookham, SL6 9SR The images show Simon receiving his dragon eggs and a swinging fairy... Do come and enjoy watching this remarkable skill and meet the artist. Another new element at The Sculpture Garden this year is a short film documenting artists making their work.... I've yet to receive all the interesting bits of footage from the artsits but I can assure you it will be an insightful and interesting short film on the working processes of the artists. Many stories to discover this year... The image below shows the renowned stone sculptor Nicolas Moreton at work. With over 100 sculptures for sale by professional working artists and acres of lovely gardens to explore make sure you get along to see the exhibition. The Sculpture Garden is on daily 10 am - 4pm until 19th May. £2 donation to Cookham Festival of The Arts.
