I saw this at the Tate about 2003 and I can't remember who the artist was and it's driving me potty. Does any one know what I mean and can you help?

The statue was called "Towards the corner" and was by Spanish sculptor Juan Muñoz. It is truly beautiful

Stunningly beautiful.

There are often wonderful exhibitions at The Yorkshire Sculpture Park www.ysp.co.uk/. Well worth a visit. There is an inside gallery as well as wonderful sculptures all through the park. Visiting artists change regularly.

Oh thank you Lisalou I knew someone would know. I've been googling since 5am! Mainly jet lagged but It did bother me.

Happy to have found it for you! Truth is, I just googled your title for the thread and added "Tate" and it came up pretty much immediately. I cant take credit for much there.

But that's what I was doing! For what seemed like hours!

What search engine have you got, Stansgran? I found it straight away with Google too.
