Grove Hotel – Expressions of Movement

Following the great success of the previous exhibition Art Contact was again approached to organise another sculpture exhibition in the Grounds of the Grove Hotel near Watford.

In close collaboration with the hotel staff, the sculptures and exhibition locations were selected and Art Contact made the necessary arrangements for the installation of the exhibition including making the arrangements for any specialist equipment to be available.

The installation took about a week and the exhibition ran for about 6 months.

The time scale from the initial inquiry to the opening of the show was about 9 months.

A selection of the sculptures shown can be seen below.
