Focussed primarily on his work in residency at Castle Drogo, Edward will discuss the process of developing works for his 2018 exhibition ‘Holding Up’ within one of Lutyens finest works, and the accidental Lutyens odyssey that followed. Looking at the castle in the context of its recent restoration, as well as the good humour, bold ambition and extraordinary extravagance of its initial conception, the talk will describe the joy and tribulations that derive from a recurring fascination in the architects work.
