Essential form abstracted from the concrete - Henry Moore and wall from the Brandon Council Estate, Camberwell 2000

Tate St Ives opened in June 1993 and offers a unique introduction to the new order of reality. This is one birthplace of modern municipal art, where many works can be viewed in the surroundings and atmosphere which inspired them: essential form abstracted from concrete.

The Gallery also manages the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, which gives a remarkable insight into the work of this great twentieth-century sculptor.
