Leading international artists and designers including Jeppe Hein, Carsten Höller, Zaha Hadid and Arik Levy have been specially commissioned to take part in 'Artists’ Playground', an exhibition curated by Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst and Elliot McDonald and presented in partnership with Phillips de Pury & Company.
Set in the Cotswold Hills, the partially ruined Sudeley Castle will be the setting for the exhibition which will feature works based on the theme of play. These will include a giant slide created by Zaha Hadid and a flying machine by Carsten Höller.
The curator/design dealer Kenny Schachter has co-ordinated the design element of the exhibition, curating works by four designers: Zaha Hadid, Tom Dixon, Arik Levy and Richard Woods.
