Arts Ahead: Song For Coal

WAKEFIELD INSTALLATION Song For Coal Yorkshire Sculpture Park West Bretton Until April 19

Marking the 30th anniversary of the miners’ strike, Song for Coal is a highly evocative kaleidoscopic work.

Installed in an 18th-century chapel, it explores the physical and cultural properties of coal through imagery and song.

Based on the flamboyant tracery of the apocalyptic rose window of Sainte Chapelle in Paris, each of the 152 separate panels hosts individual films that trace coal from the carboniferous to the post- industrial and the installation is accompanied by a plainsong composed by Nick Crowe and Ian Rawlinson based on The Coal Catechism (1898) by William Jasper Nicolls.
