Art and Landscape Architecture&Garden Design Students view Public Art at the Folkestone Triennial

Folkstone Triennial in October

Blue skies, seaside, and the coastal town of Folkestone was a recent destination for students to experience the landscape as a setting for public art.  A truly interdisciplinary domain and experience, the careful and thoughtful placement of sculptural works revealed a sensitivity and critique of space and place for students of both art, landscape architecture and garden design programmes at Writtle University College.

Selected works this year are by Antony Gormley, Tracey Emin , Bob and Roberta Smith amongst others.  Show concludes 5 November, but it's still a great place to visit.
