Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, St Ives

The Barbara Hepworth Museum was opened in 1976 by Hepworth's family, following the wishes expressed in her will. The Museum has been owned and run by Tate since 1980. It contains the largest group of Hepworth's works, permanently on display at Trewyn Studio and garden where she lived and worked from 1949 until her death in 1975.  As well as an interest in abstraction, Hepworth was also inspired by the landscape of West Cornwall and used its shapes, forms and colours as a source for much of her work. https://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-st-ives/barbara-hepworth-museum-and-sculpture-garden
