Barbara HepworthThursday 22 May 2003
Barbara Hepworth
She didn't like the way it rained all the time, she complained about the lack of light, and it was only when she left that she realised how much the Yorkshire landscape had made her a sculptor.

It's the centenary of Barbara Hepworth's birth and to mark the date the Yorkshire Sculpture Park have brought her sculptures back home to Wakefield, where she thought they belonged.
Judy Merry went to meet the assistant curator Alex Hodby.
Exhibition at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton, Wakefield from 17 May - 14 September 2003.
