Certainly not everyone's idea of art
We were visiting Hall Place & Gardens on the other side of the river to find that the hall was hosting an art exhibition called Beastly Hall so decided to have a look before having lunch and moving on into the gardens
Sitting on the banks of the River Cray , Hall Place was once the residence of Sir John Champneys, a successful merchant and former Lord Mayor of London

The exhibition began in the inner courtyard with a metal sculpture of a 'bag lady' but this being a 'beastly' exhibition the lady is a badger
the hallway
thousands of of Peacock feathers!
weird
a 'box' of flies
Art????????????
record turntables
I really did not like this one
bizarre
left quickly to look at the house but there was a reception on so limited viewing
The Great Hall with minstrels gallery
Certainly unusual and can't say I liked it but we did enjoy our lunch in the restaurant and enjoyed the gardens afterwards.

Fascinatingly weird! But I think I like it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't care for the "art" either. Love the house though. I'll have to look up the history, it seems quite old.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the peek.
Hugs
How extraordinary!
ReplyDeleteIt is not my cup of tea and I wouldn't call it art!
ReplyDeleteThe house on the other hand seems as if it is well worth a look.
Odd ideas some people have. The house is charming, though.
ReplyDeleteThat was different, nice to get out and see what other people are doing.
ReplyDeleteWell that was a fascinating ramble with you, thanks! Loved the field of peacock feathers... can't say the same for the 'box' of flies! At least the exhibits get people talking :-) JJ
ReplyDeleteBeautiful architecture, but not my kind of art for the most part...an amazing display of peacock feathers, though, Barbara :)
ReplyDeleteMost of the art is not my 'scene'. A shame that you only had limited viewing of the house but I like the Great Hall.
ReplyDeleteGosh there is some thought-provoking art here! Your photos are also stunnning, I can only take photos outside which hampers me somewhat. Thanks so much for sharing your time at this super house.
ReplyDeleteIt gives one something to think about. Very unusual stuff!
ReplyDeleteThat was way too weird for me!
