\n Art For Cure is staging a huge sculpture exhibition in the gardens of Wyken Vineyards in west Suffolk, with nearly 200 sculptures displayed throughout May and June.\n<\/p>\n
\n Previous exhibitions have been held at Helmingham Hall, Glemham Hall, Somerleyton and London’s Bankside Gallery beside the Tate Modern.\n<\/p>\n

\n Belinda Gray, founder of the national charity, which supports breast cancer research and care, described the move as “an exciting new chapter,” with Wyken’s gardens offering “an intimacy and sense of discovery that really complements sculpture.”\n<\/p>\n
\n In addition to the outdoor sculptures, a rotating display of 70 paintings will be exhibited inside The Leaping Hare Restaurant.\n<\/p>\n
\n Art For Cure was founded in 2014 by Ms Gray, a former palliative care nurse, following her own experience of breast cancer.\n<\/p>\n
\n Her first exhibition, held in her home, raised \u00a3100,000 in a single weekend.\n<\/p>\n
\n Since then, the charity has raised over \u00a31.5 million.\n<\/p>\n

\n Previous exhibitions have been held at venues across East Anglia, including Helmingham Hall and Glemham Hall.\n<\/p>\n
\n The 2026 edition showcases works by more than 30 established artists, including Suffolk-based sculptor Paul Richardson, who specialises in large-scale abstract steel pieces.\n<\/p>\n
\n Also featured will be bronzes by Carol Peace and Arabella Brooke, ceramics by Kate Reynolds, and a copper and steel installation by Ted Edley.\n<\/p>\n
\n Paintings on display will include riverscapes by Sara Johnson and abstract botanicals by Anna Hymas.\n<\/p>\n
\n Sam Carlisle of Wyken Vineyards described the exhibition as “a natural extension of our work at Wyken.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Art For Cure is a registered charity that raises funds through the sale of art.\n<\/p>\n
\n All works are available to purchase, with proceeds supporting breast cancer research and support services across East Anglia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Art For Cure is staging a huge sculpture exhibition in the gardens of Wyken Vineyards in west Suffolk,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":433641,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[442,498,499,500,501,156,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-433640","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-artsdesign","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433640","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=433640"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433640\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/433641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=433640"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=433640"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=433640"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
