EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Barbara Hepworth's "Four-Square Walkthrough," a striking sculpture that gracefully adorns the grounds of Churchill College in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. The image, captured by James O. Davies in 2015, offers a unique perspective on this post-war masterpiece. Hepworth's "Four-Square Walkthrough," created in 1966, is a testament to the artist's innovative approach to sculpture. The work invites viewers to engage with it in a tactile and immersive way, as its title suggests. The sculpture's four interconnected squares, each with its distinct form and texture, create a sense of movement and flow. The setting of Churchill College, with its modernist architecture and expansive greenery, provides an ideal backdrop for Hepworth's work. The interplay between the organic forms of the sculpture and the geometric lines of the college buildings adds depth and complexity to the scene. The photograph by James O. Davies not only captures the beauty and intrigue of "Four-Square Walkthrough," but also invites us to reflect on the relationship between art, architecture, and the natural environment. The image invites us to imagine the experience of walking through the sculpture, as its title suggests, and to consider the ways in which art can enrich our daily lives. The post-war period saw a renewed interest in sculpture as a means of expressing the complexities of the modern world. Hepworth's "Four-Square Walkthrough" is a prime example of this trend, and its presence in the grounds of Churchill College serves as a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and engage.
