England - Art and Culture
the Tate Modern in London. But museums and galleries are not the only
homes of art. Sculptures and art festivals also testify to the creative genius
of England. Sculptures range from ancient figures of historical import to life-
size bronze carvings of human beings (such as exist on the roof of De la Warr
Pavilion in Bexhill or the Another Place exhibition on Crosby Beach,
Liverpool).
One of the largest art festivals is held in Birmingham and is called Artsfest.
The artistic talents being showcased range from classical music and song to
traditional dancing and stand-up comedy. This festival is usually held in
September.
Theatre is another very important part of the English culture and is, in fact,
one of the reasons people visit the country. Theatrical shows, such as Cats,
The Lion King and The Phantom of the Opera, are modern reflections of the
ancient Shakespearean productions that once graced the English stages.
