 Sculptures
belong in gardens!
This section of the site concerns a search for sculpture-gardens.
Some of my own sculptures were placed in private gardens and that's
why I show you some introductions and weblinks. If you have a good
suggestion please let me

 The
Best of Perigord
In the 'Jardins
de Cadiot' from the very beginning both arts of gardening and
sculpting went together in great harmony. Since a short time ago,
in the wood-garden also a number of sculptures of Zimbabwe is
to be seen. In summertime the works of about 40 different artists
is exposed. Every year 'Afric Art' acquires on a direct 'fair-trade'
base all sorts of sculptings of the people in Tengenenge, an art-village
in the northern part of Zimbabwe, where stone-carving has been
practised for ages. Besides traditionally inspired works of art,
in our sculpture-garden you will particularly find contemporary
- and often very expressive - art.

 Art
in the Polder
Behind the gallery you enter the splendidly arranged sculpture-garden
of 3500 m2. This garden is devided into several so-called 'garden-rooms',
in which sculptures in various styles are to be seen. To show
these pieces of art to their full extend, a garden has been created
which radiates a calm quiet as well as a superior background to
the sculptures exposed. Every year 'Art in the Polder' organizes
various "theme-sale-exhibitions" and in the sculpture-garden
and gallery you can also take part in guided tours and lextures
for groups.
