Chatsworth ~ Beyond Limits ~ 2012/9

OK, before I push my mouse to one side for the evening here's Exhibit No. 9 of the Beyond Limits exhibition at Chatsworth.

It's called Elephant and yes, it's by Barry Flanagan ... 

I rather like where this is positioned too ... there's no clutter surrounding it.



It's in between two lines of rather attractive 'wavy' hedges ...



Is it me or is its tail out of proportion though ?

Exhibit No. 6 of the Beyond Limits exhibition at Chatsworth [which is still running] is 'Composition' by Barry Flanagan ...

'Composition' didn't inspire me as you may be able to tell from these photos ...

 

 

 

... or perhaps I'm just not quite in the right frame of mind just now.

With Exhibit No. 2 we leave the hare behind and concentrate on an elephant. Indeed this exhibit is called 'Elephant' !

 

In fact I saw Exhibit 2 on my way to look at Exhibit 1 ~ both of them being in or near to the rose garden.



'Elephant' was a little easier to photograph than 'Large Mirror Nijinski' and there weren't quite so many people around ...



... well some of the time there were perhaps a few too many legs in view ...



... then they were gone.



I thought this was quite a nice piece in a better position ...



 

Obviously much more lifelike than Exhibit No. 1 !
