Interactive art Blenheim Art Foundation Exhibition by Tino Sehgal July 9 – August 15 www.blenheimpalace.com Tino Sehgal is known for artworks composed exclusively using the human body, voice, and social interaction. The group of participants – the majority of whom are local residents – will gather and disperse in a fluid and porous choreography, enacting moments of connection with visitors and their surroundings. This relationship of movement to context is informed by the landscape architecture of Capability Brown.
