Waddesdon Manor
2010
TSP have been appointed to promote Waddesdon Manor’s new contemporary art and design programme which includes the opening of a dedicated contemporary art and design space in the newly refurbished Coach House from May 2010.
The programme launches with an exhibition of newly created chandeliers and other lighting by world-renowned Brazilian designers, the Campana brothers, and the display of Jeff Koons’ Cracked Egg (Blue) (2006) in Waddesdon’s Conservatory in the house.
Cracked Egg (Blue) (2006) is a large, two-part stainless steel sculpture in Koons’ now famous Celebration series that began with Balloon Dog in 1994. It is a unique work and the first of five different vividly coloured versions.
The Campana brothers are working with the famous Venini glass studio on the Venetian island of Murano to create five unique chandeliers from multi-coloured fragmented Venini glass.
Visitors can also see sculpture in the grounds of the house by Sarah Lucas, Angus Fairhurst and Stephen Cox and amongst the works in the house are paintings by Lucian Freud and David Hockney and a contemporary chandelier by the German lighting designer Ingo Maurer.
