Crosby Beach.
Internationally acclaimed artist Antony Gormley has chosen Crosby Beach to show his latest work ‘Another Place’, and it’s getting a massive reaction.
Winner of the Turner Prize in 1994, Antony Gormley is best known for his controversial sculpture ‘Angel of the North’ which dominates the skyline near Newcastle.
"Another Place" is a massive installation on Crosby Beach that consists of 100 cast-iron figures, moulded from the artists own body in the style that has become synonymous with his work. The ghostly life-size figures are dotted along three kilometres of the Crosby shore, sparse in some areas and getting more congregated as they reach the sea front, so onlookers can catch the detail of those near and the shadow of sculptures in the distance out to sea in one eyeful.
