A new destination for contemporary art in the UK, Goodwood Art Foundation features the work of internationally acclaimed artists set amid a natural landscape, offering an inspiring and enriching experience for all.
The first major UK presentation of American land artist Nancy Holt (1938–2014) – best known for her Sun Tunnels (1973–76) in the Utah desert – invites visitors to explore art shaped by light, language and space. Works include her early Concrete Poetry, photography, film and two landmark installations that extend into the landscape. Among them is Hydra’s Head, a series of water-filled pools that bear witness to their environment.

Describing her work as “magic minimalism”, Eva Rothschild (b.1971) combines hand-made processes with industrial fabrication to disrupt expectations through material, colour and composition. Presented across the Pigott Gallery and the landscape, her exhibition includes sculptural works alongside two new tapestries woven locally at West Dean's Tapestry Studio.
Our Summer Programme unfolds through earthworks, sculpture, tapestry, ceramics and large-scale outdoor installations. In conversation with our evolving 70-acre landscape, discover new ways to encounter art, nature and place. Featured artists include Nancy Holt, Eva Rothschild, Yayoi Kusama, and Lee Ufan.

Our seasonal menu is shaped by our surrounding landscape, incorporating foraged ingredients and organic produce from Goodwood's regenerative farm.
