Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden, Barnoon Hill, St. Ives, Cornwall, TR26 1AD.
Visiting the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden is a unique experience, offering a remarkable insight into the work and outlook of one of Britain’s most important 20th century artists. Sculptures in bronze, stone and wood are on display in the Museum and Garden, along with paintings, drawings and archive material.
Hepworth lived and worked in Trewyn studios, now the Hepworth Museum, from 1949 until her death in 1975, and created many of her most famous works there. The lush, subtropical garden was an essential part of Hepworth’s creative process, when she died it opened to the public as a permanent setting to exhibit her works. Since 1980 the Tate has managed both studio and garden, providing a vital link to Tate St Ives and the artistic heritage of St Ives.
