Newnham College Cambridge Public Arts Commission

NEWNHAM COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE Redeveloping our Kitchens, Buttery and related spaces gave us our first introduction to "Public Art". We had to find an expert in architectural glass to transform ten huge picture windows along the Sidgwick Avenue frontage into works of art. The windows face north - they need to let in as much light as possible and to provide some degree of privacy for people using the Buttery while at the same time packing a real visual punch both for passers-by on the street and for those within the College. We found our expert! Beverly's Public Art work for Tower Hamlets first drew out attention, and she was the artist we chose after a rigorous selection process. She absorbed the history and atmosphere of the College and translated our aspirations into a vibrant reality, giving dramatic impact both inside and out. It was a great pleasure working with Beverly - her combination of professionalism and fun was truly a delight! Frances Hazlehurst Newnham College Cambridge
