Reform-Run Kent Council Sells Off Antony Gormley Sculpture After Raising Taxes

Nigel Farage’s flagship council quietly sold Two Stones, one of the sculptor’s earliest commissions, as part of a wave of publicly owned art disposals that critics call “shameful”

Reform-run Kent County Council has sold off a work of public art by one of Britain’s most respected sculptors, Antony Gormley.

Gormley’s ‘Two Stones’ was hosted outside the Kent History and Library Centre in Maidstone until a few days ago.

The work was one of Gormley’s first commissions. The renowned artist studied and later taught at the Maidstone School of Art.
