THIS weekend is the last chance to see a new exhibition of limited-edition sculptures by Salvador Dalí at Newby Hall, near Ripon.

Of Time and Space marks the first collaboration between Newby Hall and Castle Galleries, a national chain with a gallery in Castlegate, York.

Not primarily a sculptor, Dalí created the original sculptures, or “maquettes”, in a desire to see if his iconographic images would work in a three-dimensional form.

The nine-piece collection includes Dance Of Time I, II and III, Horse Saddled With Time, Nobility Of Time; and Profile Of Time.

Time may be a human notion, but in Dalí’s world of melted watches, time is perpetual and “dances on, stopping for no man, history or cosmos”.

The elephant in Space Elephant and Triumphant Elephant is one of Dalí’s favourite images and an iconoclastic symbol of the future. In Space Venus, he pays homage to the female figure, incorporating his iconic egg.

Should you be wondering, all nine works are for sale at prices starting at £12,000.

Harrogate photographer Javan Liam is showing his work alongside the Dalí sculptures.

“I’m delighted to be exhibiting a collection of my limited-edition photography, chosen to accompany Of Time And Space,” he says. “It’s fitting to be hosting this exhibition at Newby Hall and Gardens, the home of the Compton family, which is on my doorstep and has a long association with the arts.”
