Hubert Dalwood






The second exhibition currently showing at the Mead Gallery is  'Hubert Dalwood, Landscape into Sculpture'





But before going into the exhibition we admired the neon light installation at the entrance.

I loved the large aluminium sculptures.
 
 
He became fascinated with the relationship of sculpture to architecture, and the relation of both to the body.  'Scale is the important thing. That is what the Greeks were so good at, relating their buildings and their spaces, even when very large, to the scale of a human being. That is what architecture is for me, and that is what sculpture is also'.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Temple, in Toronto.




 
 
 
At Roche Court, perfect relationship between architecture, sculpture and the body.

  2. Where is Roche Court? The glass wall in that last photo, the way it joins the slim-looking roof, and the chunky door are fab. Wouldn't you just love that in a house? Probably best to have it overlooking an inner garden, rather than facing out onto a main road, though!
