A group of sculptures by Lynn Chadwick RA (1914 - 2003) has been installed in the Royal Academy’s Annenberg Courtyard, as part of celebrations to make the centenary of his birth.

The installation, organised in collaboration with Blain Southern gallery, features four works from his series of steel beasts that were made between 1989-1990.
As we reported last week, it is the first time that this group of sculptures has been shown together in public.
The sculptures will be in the Royal Academy’s Annenberg Courtyard until 16 May 2014.
