Sotheby’s is delighted to announce a new and exciting collaboration with Sudeley Castle with an inaugural selling exhibition of cutting-edge contemporary design to be staged in the spectacular grounds of the estate. The Sotheby’s selling exhibition, arranged in association with Carpenters Workshop Gallery, will showcase a series of one-off and limited edition pieces by leading contemporary artists and designers including Marc Quinn, Lionel Scoccimaro, Pablo Reinoso, Marcel Wanders, Jurgen Bey, Wendell Castle, Robert Stadler, Vincent Dubourg and Ingrid Donat, as well as the design ateliers Studio Job, Demakersvan and Atelier Van Lieshout.

Our personal favourite is the Wellness Skull by Atelier Van Lieshout. The human skull - a universal symbol for knowledge & wisdom – is transformed into a centre for indulgence & relaxation, housing a sauna, bath & shower, delivering a dramatic haze of steam from the eye sockets on the outside.

The exhibition runs until 1st August 2010 www.sudeleycastle.co.uk
