2010
Now, seven years later, the dream is definitely taking shape, configuring the vistas and hidden landscapes of Jupiter Artland in a variety of provocative and suprising ways. Jupiter Artland Year Two opens with challenging new works by Turner prize nominated artists Nathan Coley, Jim Lambie and Cornelia Parker. Cornelia Parker’s new piece for 2010 adds to her Nocturne (A Moon Landing) work which she created for the opening last year and which is marked by a plaque in the HaHa. Peter Liversidge continues to enact his Jupiter Proposals with a new piece for the season. Even though the site for each work was chosen by its individual creator, the overall collection has a discernibly orchestrated cohesion.
Visitors to Jupiter Artland are given a map indicating the location of the artworks within the grounds. But there's no set route. Clockwise or anticlockwise is your choice. As is a left turn here or a right turn there; or the retracing of steps for a second look. The artworks are land marks, events, confrontations on a journey of discovery; an open-ended journey. If you enjoy Jupiter Artland we hope you will return. If you do, over time, you will come across new installations in the park and hopefully come to appreciate more fully the concept of this unfolding story or continual work-in-progress.
