This map is designed to enable you to find and identify all the works of art on the estate purchased, commissioned or loaned by Canary Wharf Group. These include stand-alone pieces and integrated artist- architectural works, all executed by some of the most inspired artists, designers and craftsmen of today. The works are numbered sequentially as to their location on the estate from west to east, and the text indicates whether they are sited inside or outside. Art Map PUBLIC ART AT CANARY WHARF BR GERALD LAING | Relief Portrait of Michael von Clemm | 1998 | bronze EXTERIOR Cabot Square A bronze relief portrait by Gerald Laing set on a Portland stone plinth commemorates Michael von Clemm (1935–1997), ‘investment banker and pioneer of the Euromarkets whose vision helped to create this financial centre’. Laing first came to fame as one of the significant British Pop artists in the 1960s, known for paintings that commented on the contemporary scene. He later focused on sculpture, first abstract then figurative subjects, and undertook a number of high profile commissions. BS JEFF BELL | Cast Glass Panels | 1992 | cast lead crystal EXTERIOR Cabot Square Jeff Bell’s Cast Glass Panels form the cladding for the four ventilation shafts in Cabot Square that service the car park below, turning the functional into a spectacle of light and colour. Born in Yorkshire, Bell established his studio in London in 1986 and has built up a reputation for making unique cast glass sculpture, furniture and architectural pieces. He enjoys pushing the boundaries of the application of his chosen material and has cast the most unlikely structures, including a bath tub and a spiral staircase. BT BRUCE McLEAN | Sculptural Railings | 1992 | steel EXTERIOR Fisherman’s Walk, Wren Landing Bruce McLean’s intervention at Canary Wharf is the sculptural railing alongside Fisherman’s Walk. The 40-metre long charcoal steel rail is heavily worked with shapes, faces, circles and squares, true to his style. McLean challenges the traditional structure of the railing, subverting the straight line with wit and vigour. McLean has worked on numerous architectural schemes in collaboration with architect Will Alsop, including the Queen Mary College School of Medicine & Dentistry in Whitechapel. BU WALES & WALES | Benches | 1992 | beech EXTERIOR Wren Landing and throughout estate Husband and wife design team Wales & Wales have created many of the wooden benches that are found in Canary Wharf’s exterior and interior spaces. Their work is influenced by architecture, characterised here by the subtle sensitivity with which the benches relate to their surroundings. Wales & Wales originally trained as cabinet makers, but they soon became more interested in the design process and the scale of their production increased. Their furniture can be seen world-wide. CL LYNN CHADWICK | Couple on Seat | 1984 | bronze EXTERIOR Cabot Square Courtesy of the Lypiatt Studios and Pangolin Editions. Lynn Chadwick (1914–2003) began his career as an architectural draughtsman but after World War II he took up sculpture. Couple on Seat is one of his later works. He produced many pieces with figures in various positions, following in the tradition of sculptor Henry Moore. Chadwick created a permanent exhibition of his work at his home at Lypiatt Park in Gloucestershire. An exhibition of his work was held in One Canada Square and Jubilee Park in 2004. BM TATIANA ORLOFF | Planters | 2001–02 | bronze EXTERIOR Columbus Courtyard Tatiana Orloff is perhaps best known for her portrait sculpture and during her career she has worked in a variety of materials and techniques, which include welding in mild steel. The mastering of each new discipline has had an influence on her work as a whole. These 12 planters reflect her skill in ceramics transposed here into sculpture in bronze. They are unique, designed specifically for Canary Wharf, and were originally located either side of a short flight of steps in Canada Square Park. BN LEO STEVENSON | The Hibbert Gate | 2000 | bronze, stone EXTERIOR Adjacent to North Dock, west This replica of the main gate was commissioned to commemorate the original entrance to the West India Docks, built in 1803. The ship on top of the arch is a West Indiaman named Hibbert, which went to sea between 1785 and 1813 and travelled extensively to the West Indies, bringing back sugar, rum, cotton, coffee and tropical hardwoods. All drawings of the ship are now lost but this model by Leo Stevenson was made based on extensive research into records of West Indiamen of the period. BO GILES PENNY | Man with Arms Open | 1995 | bronze EXTERIOR West India Avenue Giles Penny’s Man with Arms Open is a roughly hewn bronze figure with his head thrown back and arms outstretched. Penny came to the attention of the Canary Wharf Group when this work, together with another of his bronzes, Two Men on a Bench, was shown as part of the Millennium exhibition, The Shape of the Century in 1999, shown in Salisbury and at Canary Wharf. Both sculptures were then purchased and form part of the permanent collection of works of art on the estate. BP KATY HACKNEY | Willoughby Passage Gate | 1999 | stainless steel EXTERIOR Willoughby Passage, West India Avenue The design brief for these gates required them to be an ‘open invitation to enter’ rather than a barrier to keep people out. Scottish-born jeweller Katy Hackney took inspiration from the mysteries of the sea and the sky to create an image that looks like the planets have collided, as well as making reference to the water that flows around the estate. Other public commissions include commemorative plaques and medals for the London bombings in 2005. BQ JAMES HORROBIN & SOM | Cabot Square Railings | 1992 | steel EXTERIOR Cabot Square A master craftsman in architectural and domestic forged ironwork, James Horrobin worked with architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) to design two sets of railings for Canary Wharf. The perimeter Cabot Square Railings are reminiscent of the cogs on a steam engine, and make a subtle addition to the ambiance of this popular square. Horrobin has created a wide diversity of architectural, ecclesiastic, domestic and sculptural works from his Doverhay Forge Studios in Somerset. ^ HUGH CHAPMAN | Growth Form 2012 | 2012 | bronze EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Gardens ON LOAN Hugh Chapman’s Growth Form 2012 was cast at the nearby Bronze Age foundry in Limehouse. Suffering a head injury as a teenager, Chapman turned his back on academia to concentrate first on ceramics before turning to photography. He later returned to ceramics and sculptural form but soon began experimenting in other media, creating larger and bolder works. His work expresses what his experiences have taught him: the importance of life and light, contrast and reflection. & ANDREW BURTON | Chimney | 2008 | recycled fired bricks, steel EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Over recent years Andrew Burton has created a number of works using miniature clay bricks, collaborating with artisans and artists in India, Korea and the Netherlands, investigating brick-making as a vehicle for sculpture. He first visited India in 1983. Close in form to chimneys of brick kilns the world over, Chimney is also a tribute to India’s tallest brick minaret of the Qutub Minar near Delhi. This work was first shown at Canary Wharf as part of his exhibition in Jubilee Park in Spring 2008. * ROBERT WORLEY | Avatar | 2009 | aluminium EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Robert Worley ARBS was the winner of the First@108 Public Art Award in 2009, a new annual award by the Royal British Society of Sculptors to provide an opportunity for artists new to public art to create a large-scale sculpture commission. The Award was sponsored by Canary Wharf Group, who subsequently purchased Worley’s sculpture Avatar for its permanent collection. Avatar portrays a hawk-like beast with a human form embedded in its back. ( IGOR MITORAJ | Centurione I | 1987 | bronze EXTERIOR Columbus Courtyard Igor Mitoraj (1944–2014) was born in East Germany of Polish/French parents and studied classical painting in Krakow before moving to Paris in 1968, and later travelled in South America. His enigmatic and monumental sculptures combine the surreal with the antiquity of Greece and Rome. At Canary Wharf there are three of his works, representing some of the themes that occupied him. Centurione I represents the head as an incomplete mask, suggesting the surviving part of an enormous whole. BL WENDY RAMSHAW | Columbus Screen | 2000 | steel, Perspex EXTERIOR Columbus Courtyard When Canary Wharf commissioned jewellery designer Wendy Ramshaw, the Columbus theme led her to a design based on the navigational charts used by the great explorer, an apposite choice given the proximity of Greenwich and its associations with maritime history. Ramshaw is best known for her jewellery, intricate brooches and rings, which can be seen at the V&A Museum and other collections, but she has also tackled large-scale architectural works, such as the Edinburgh Gate at Hyde Park, 2010. ! CONSTANCE DE JONG | Speaking of the River | 2000 | audio benches EXTERIOR Canary Riverside Speaking of the River was sponsored by Canary Wharf Group but was part of a wider project commissioned by Public Art Development Trust, which linked the river Thames in London with the river Hudson in New York. De Jong created a gentle, evocative sound-scape using recorded interviews and stories that relate the human experience of both these locations, told by people for whom the river is a daily presence. Two audio benches are located 100m apart on the riverside promenade. @ RON ARAD | Windwand | 2000 | carbon fibre EXTERIOR Canary Riverside Windwand is as tall as some of the buildings that surround it, a 50-metre high needle made of red carbon fibre. It was designed to flex gently in the wind, subverting one’s expectations of what tall objects in this area should do. Ron Arad came to London from Israel in 1973 to study at the Architectural Association and is now regarded as one of Britain’s most inventive designers, whose work crosses boundaries between art, design and architecture. # GIUSSEPPE LUND | Gate | Sculptural Railings | 1992 | steel, bronze EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Gardens Inspired by the cycle of the seasons, Lund’s Gate forms the entrance to the gardens at Westferry Circus, a remarkable work that incorporates delicate flowers flowing from a single stem set against a chunky grid, complemented by his Sculptural Railings that surround the gardens. Lund has had a long career working with metal, and has been influential in encouraging the creative use of metal in the UK, organising exhibitions and advising bodies including the Crafts Council. $ DO KÖNIG VASSILAKIS | Sasso Cosmico | 2007 | bronze, steel EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Gardens Sasso Cosmico, which translated from the Italian means ‘Cosmic Stone’, has been installed in the peaceful garden at Westferry Circus. The reflective surface captures the surrounding planting, foliage, architecture, sky and clouds. In this way it provides a constantly changing manifestation of the seasons and the weather systems. König Vassilakis’ work is strongly influenced by the mythology and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. Two more of her sculptures are found in 40 Bank Street. % JAY BATTLE | Vanishing Point | 1999 | Derbyshire stone, steel EXTERIOR Westferry Circus Vanishing Point looks a little like the shell of a mythical sea creature that has perhaps been washed up from the Thames. The stone has been polished to reveal the natural, lined core. Having trained as a stone mason in Canada, Battle came to England to study stone carving and in 1997 became Head Carver at Salisbury Cathedral, contributing to its constant restoration works as well as running his own studio where he creates contemporary, self- expressive work.
