Lodestar by Randy Polumbo at Chatworth House

 

 

Worth checking this out in large format

If you go to Chatsworth House in Derbyshire this summer you will probably be in for a surprise . The historic house is hosting an exhibition of outside art in their parkland called Radical Horizons: The Art of Burning Man.

The Burning Man festival is a unique event that usually takes place annually in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, USA, Chatsworth have worked with the Burning Man team and artists to bring its distinctive culture of possibility and creativity to the Derbyshire landscape. The show comprises eight existing sculptures and four works built on site. These include three new participatory sculptures that will be created in the parkland with the help of local schools and community groups over the course of the year, mirroring the build process at Burning Man that sees teams of volunteers gathering in the desert to create new artworks.

Not all the pieces worked for me but several were splendid . I thought Lodestar made by Randy Polumbo was particularly amusing, I love that curved plane . Apparently when it was in the desert the cage over the tail of the plane was used as a cocktail bar
