Art on the English Riviera, Featuring Damien Hirst Exhibition Following on from last year’s huge success with Antony Gormley’s Field for the British Isles, the English Riviera is pleased to announce that it will be hosting a brand new exhibition featuring Damien Hirst’s Mother and Child, Divided (Exhibition Copy). This will be the first time the piece has been seen in the UK outside of London – infact it has only ever been to Tokyo, Oslo, Venice and London so Torquay will be a unique addition to that list! In addition to the above, we are also selecting a small number of key pieces from regional and international artists to bring a brand new exhibition to the Bay. These pieces will be confirmed here shortly so watch this space! The exhibition will again be held in the stunning setting of the Spanish Barn, Torre Abbey and will be FREE!! Exact dates are yet tbc however will open early July and run until the August bank holiday. Daily opening hours will be 7 days a week, 10-5 with a few extra late nights along the way. So make sure you don't miss out on this chance to see the world famous and controversial piece of art, which is helping build the English Riviera's reputation within the art world..
