Gavin Turk at Chatsworth House – High Art Meets Low Living

Derbyshire | September 2015

When visitors to Chatsworth House queue up for tickets, they will be confronted by two hyper-realist sculptures by Gavin Turk. 'Habitat,' a sleeping bag, and 'American Bag,' a refuse sack, offer a striking contrast to their pristine surroundings. Sotheby's 10th annual Beyond Limits selling exhibition opens on 14 September.
