Skulpturenpark Waldfrieden in Wuppertal

Tony Cragg's first museum show in Britain for more than a decade opens at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art on July 30.

Last month Sandy Moffat visited the Skulpturenpark Waldfrieden in Wuppertal where Cragg has worked for the past 25 years.

The Park is situated in 16 hectacres of forest surrounding the Villa Waldfrieden, a house built on the principles of anthroposophic architecture, by the architect Franz Krause for the paint manufacturer Kurt Herberts in 1946.

The Cragg Foundation has renovated the villa and created an exhibition centre for exhibiting both outside and indoors.
