Lost Paul Nash sculpture on display at Tate Britain

The surrealist piece is being shown alongside other important works from the artist in a comprehensive new exhibition

Tate Britain is currently hosting the exciting resurrection of one of the great lost artworks of the 20th century. Paul Nash's Moon Aviary (1937), last exhibited in 1942, is a surrealist sculpture composed of ivory, cedar, stone and bone. Found in pieces in an unassuming cardboard box in a London archive, it has been reassembled for the exhibition.
