Up near Nottingham in England, is the estate of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, called Chatsworth [website]. About 20 years ago, I took a tour of this extravagant mansion and its grounds (that were landscaped by Lancelot "Capability" Brown so that the Duke and his family didn't have to look at the nearest village!). At the time they were looking for ways to use the spectacular property to pay its own bills, and this exhibition puts the site to dramatic use.
'Beyond Limits', a selling exhibition of modern and contemporary sculpture, at Chatsworth House, Derbyshire, held in association with Sothebys. September-November 2008.
Here is a link to some beautiful Flickr photos of the same exhibition.
