Yorkshire Sculpture Park wins Museum of the Year 2014

Yorkshire Sculpture Park has been named as Art Fund's Museum of the Year 2014.

Encompassing both outdoor and indoor exhibition spaces, the YSP encourages the appreciation of sculpture and includes works from both Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth in its collection.

2013 was its busiest year to date with world class exhibitions by acclaimed artists such as Yinka Shonibare and Amar Kanwar. The year also marked the opening of Roger Hiorns' Seizure, 2008/2013, an important addition to the estate.

Work was also carried out on the Chapel and Damn Head buildings, which are due to reopen to the public later this year.
