Summer
  2021

Yorkshire Sculpture International (YSI) is pleased to announce its Summer 2021 programme featuring new commissions, talks and collaborative projects in Leeds and Wakefield from 10 July – 19 September 2021.

Spanning the four partner venues – Henry Moore Institute, Leeds Art Gallery, The Hepworth Wakefield and Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) – the programme will celebrate Yorkshire as the home of sculpture in the UK.

YSI has commissioned the presentation of a new work by SHEZAD DAWOOD and a new film by ARIEL RENÉ JACKSON, as well as new works by four early career artists based in Yorkshire: AKEELAH BERTRAM, CLAYE BOWLER, NWANDO EBIZIE, and ASHLEY HOLMES. The commissions, which all feature a digital element, will be unveiled at the partner venues and in outdoor locations. Alongside the commissions, YSI will host a live and digital public programme of talks throughout the summer.
