The Art
The work of painters Dale Atkinson, Ørnulf Opdahl and Paul Gallagher feature large on the walls of Seaham Hall, where a sizeable collection of contemporary art from the North East and Norway is evolving.
Sculpture is equally well served. The works of Nicolaus Widerberg, Andrew Burton and William Pye (the water vortex at the front of the hotel is his) can be seen dotted around and sometimes even moving through Seaham Hall.
Stained glass artist Bridget Jones has created a complete ceiling based on Byron’s poetry, in the Atrium.
