They are from contemporary artists Damien Hirst, Vanessa da Silva, and Auke de Vries, and now form part of the park’s growing collection of more than 90 works.
Alex Hodby, head of programmes at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, said: “These three exceptional works exemplify the ambition and international vision that define Yorkshire Sculpture Park.
“De Vries brings a profound sensitivity to place and memory; da Silva animates the landscape with vibrant reflections on time, ecology, and identity, and Hirst compels us to engage with questions of belief, suffering, and the human form.
“Together, these sculptures invite our audiences to wander, reflect, and rediscover the dynamic conversation between art and the natural world.”
Damien Hirst’s The Martyr – Saint Bartholomew is now on display at the Camellia House, while Auke de Vries’ The Watchtower and Vanessa da Silva’s Muamba Posy are both located in the Country Park.
Ms Da Silva, whose work explores themes of movement and transformation, hopes visitors will connect with the landscape and the art.
She said: “I see the sculptures as a space for people to gather, to pause and connect with the nature around them.”
