  • Coplestone Warre Bampfylde. New Perspectives (Taunton, 6-8 Nov 20)
    Coplestone Warre Bampfylde. New Perspectives (Taunton, 6-8 Nov 20) Hestercombe House & Gardens, Taunton, Somerset, UK, Nov 6–08, 2020 Deadline: Jun 15, 2020 Bill Balaskas Coplestone Warre Bampfylde (1720 – 1791) constitutes one of the most distinct, yet largely over- looked cultural figures of 18th-century Britain. As an artist, architect and landscape designer, he epitomised the qualities of a polymath who did not hesitate to put his knowledge and vision into practice. This major international conference aims to shed new light on Bampfylde’s multifaceted work and legacy, on the 300th anniversary of his birth. The conference will take place at Hestercombe House and Gardens, in Somerset – a place of great importance for Bampfylde’s life and diverse practice. After inheriting Hestercombe in 1750, Bampfylde designed an impressive landscape garden to the north of the House, which comple- ments another three period gardens, including a world-famous Edwardian garden designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll. Inspired by this unique historical setting, the conference invites papers from art historians, archi- tects, landscape designers, cultural theorists, curators and artists, which look into the different areas of activity that define Bampfylde’s creative life – as painter, architect, engineer and garden designer. At the same time, we welcome papers that explore other aspects of Bampfylde’s life, which could illuminate the wider historical context of his work. Relevant subjects may include his role as colonel in the Somersetshire militia; his relation to the multifaceted political, social and cul- tural developments of the 18th century; and his extensive personal networks. Finally, a distinct section of the conference will focus on the history of the Hestercombe estate, from its role during the two World Wars to its contemporary art programme since 2014.

  • Link-Up November 2019
    Link–Up November 2019 E-Magazine From the editor It seemed only last week that we were enjoying hot sunny days and now are already planning Christmas functions, several of which are advertised in this issue and all for good causes so please support them when you can. Before that of course is November the 5th. I won’t apologise for keeping on about it but please remember, animals are very frightened of fireworks, also little creatures hibernate in piles of garden debris destined to become bonfires so please move the pile or check carefully before setting alight. Some pleas for help in this issue from litter picking to fund raising and administration which hopefully will be answered, but it will be a sad day if the pre-school has to close due to an insufficient number of children, a problem which unfortunately most people are unable to help with. We can look forward this month to nature delighting us with beautiful Autumn colours. It is always a pleasure to walk around the lovely countryside at this time of year. Let’s hope it stays the natural unspoiled, unchanged area for future generations to enjoy.
