Sculptures in the Close, Jesus College Cambridge

We visited the Sculptures exhibited at Jesus College Cambridge "Sculptures in the Close".
Eduardo Paolozzi CBE RA (7 March 1924 - 22 April 2005) a Scottish sculptor and artist associated with the periods of  Pop art, Conceptual art, Modern art, Surrealism. He is a sculptor I really like so I was pleased to see a Piece of his work. I often visit the courtyard at the British library to see his depiction of Newton.  The modern sculptures are thrown into stark relief in the historic setting of an old Benedictine convent dating back to the 12th century.  Exhibits included Thomas Houseago, who most recently exhibited in New York's Rockefeller Plaza, and Eva Rothschild, who was elected to the Royal Academy in March. They are appearing alongside previous Turner Prize nominees Roger Horns and Lucy Skaer, as well as Royal Academy Jack Goldhill Award winner James Capper, who is just 27 years old.
