DNA have recently been working in partnership with Torbay Council to promote their latest creative projects… Antony Gormley’s Field for the British Isles will be the centrepiece of a year of contemporary art in the ancient setting of Torre Abbey in Torquay. Perhaps most famous for his giant sculpture, Angel of the North, Gormley’s Turner-prize-winning Field series is a startling and arresting sight: 40,000 unglazed, fired, small clay figures, standing closely together, all staring towards the viewer. The exhibition is free and open from 27th June – 23th August 2009. 

Futher promotional material has been created for the Torre Abbey Contemporary Open (TACO). Set alongside Gormley’s installation, TACO will continue to showcase exceptional art in the Southwest region at Torre Abbey. It’s open from 16th July – 31st August and well worth a look!
