HENI Talks x Articulation: Barbara Hepworth, 'Family of Man'
Qabir Alli and Marianne Whiting - alumni of the ARTiculation Prize - discuss Barbara Hepworth's 'Family of Man', exploring the relationships between the sculptural group, landscape and the viewer, as well as Hepworth's attention to materials.
This is the second film released in a collaborative series with ARTiculation celebrating 'Young Voices' engaging with art.
Articulation is an initiative that provides a platform for students to develop their confidence and ability by expressing their opinions, thoughts and ideas through the arts and public speaking. The initiative seeks to champion young people regardless of background and experience. Articulation began in 2006 at the Roche Court Educational Trust and merged with the National Gallery in 2022.
