Jupiter Artland is the mystical name appointed to an exciting privately funded new sculptural park found within 80 acres of the grounds of the chairman of the firm that owns Bach remedies, a 17th-century house in West Lothian. The park is commissioning major pieces by the likes of Antony Gormley, Marc Quinn, Anish Kapoor and Andy Goldsworthy. Cornelia Parker added to the opening events by firing a moon rock spectacle into the air. On their website they promote, 'The garden is a garden of discovery - an earthwork here, a copse of cradled rocks there, the entrance to a fathomless burrow right before your feet. We provide a map but no set routes. There are pathways, in places, but no path. Come and discover, contemplate and delight. '1
