About the Collection

The University of Hertfordshire Art Collection features over 500 artworks displayed across its campuses. Hosted by UHArts, this walk introduces 14 outdoor sculptures on College Lane campus.

The Sculpture Walk presents an eclectic group of works which map the changing characteristics of British Sculpture since the 1950s.

The trail reveals Land Art by Andy Goldsworthy, as well as sound sculpture, interactive sculpture, assemblages and intervention into the landscape.
