Kew to host Henry Moore exhibition
The Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew is to host a special one-off exhibition profiling the work of English artist and sculptor Sir Henry Spencer Moore.
Some 28 separate sculptures by the renowned artist will be on display in the world-famous venue, many of which have never been seen in the capital before.
Additionally, a series of workshops and tours are being specially run for children who attend the event.
Visitors to the exhibition will be taken on a thematic tour of Moore's depiction of the environment, with botanically themed sculptures such as Large Reclining Figure and Double Oval highlighting the artist's unique insight to natural forms.
Kew Gardens is open daily from 09:00 to 17:30 and is located just off Kew Road in Richmond, in close proximity to Richmond and Kew Gardens Tube Stations.
Tickets for the Henry Moore exhibit are priced £12.25 for adults - with £10.25 concessions - while entry is free for children under 17.
