TWENTY years on, Arundel Gallery Trail is celebrating its birthday in style, with four pieces by sculptor to royalty, Philip Jackson.
Famed for his work of the Queen, which stands in Windsor Great Park, as well as Chichester Cathedral's St Richard and the United Trinity sculpture at Old Trafford, of George Best, Bobby Charlton and Denis Law, Jackson's work is now on display in the gardens of Arundel Castle.
Michelle Scott, chairman of the gallery trail, said: "These sculptures, from his personal collection, feature robed, masked or faceless figures reminiscent of 18th century Venetian procurators, and are graceful and delicately poised.
"Expressive, thought-provoking, with ever-changing perspectives and narratives, Philip Jackson's work is emotive and communicates in a way that is engaging and equally accessible to all ages and classes."
He is currently finishing a sculpture of the Queen Mother, for her monument in The Mall in London, which is due to be unveiled at the end of the year.
The gallery trail is part of Arundel Festival, and is one of the longest-running open-house circuits in the country. It will take place between August 23 and 31. The Jackson sculptures were installed early, and are on show now.
