Sotheby's has teamed up with Sudeley Castle to create a seating exhibition on the castle's grounds. The 'Huge Sudeley Bench' by Pablo Reinoso is part of this exhibition on display until August 1st, 2010.
The Huge Sudeley Bench is the first time that Reinoso has worked on such a large scale. A new artist's monogram also appears on the bench that is painted black with easily resurfaced autobody paint. All 25 pieces in the exhibition -- including those specially commissioned by Sotheby's -- will be on auction at exhibition's end.
