About Nick Crowe

In 2001, YSP commissioned a new exhibition, presenting a rare opportunity to see the work of talented contemporary artist Nick Crowe.

In the Bothy Gallery, 12 flip charts displayed Crowe’s drawings. Each chart combined a graph representing one month’s financial trading on the Nasdaq financial index, with a landscape. The Nasdaq is concerned with technology stocks and trades taking place via a computer and telecommunications network.

This pairing of landscape with the world of commerce creates a timely and thought-provoking reflection on our contemporary world.

    Henry Moore: Large Totem Head

    This sculpture is enlarged from a much smaller work made five years previously called Head: Boat Form and the resemblance to a hollowed-out boat remains clear. However, unlike that sculpture, which sat horizontally, Large Totem Head is raised to a standing form, assuming the totem-like presence of its title.
  3. A large, rusted metal sculpture stands in a grassy area, featuring a pattern of circular cut-outs arranged in a diagonal line. Surrounding the sculpture are bare trees and a clear blue sky, creating a serene outdoor setting.
