Venture into a world of mystery through Anish Kapoor's awe-inspiring works at this landmark exhibition featuring monumental sculptures and paintings that provoke the senses.
Kapoor’s exhibition fills the entire gallery building with a series of immersive works, many of which press against the gallery walls and floors or descend from the ceiling to create an uncanny sensation of awe and wonder.
The exhibition features works from many of Kapoor’s most iconic series: flawless steel mirror sculptures that warp, distort and disorient; mysterious objects coated in Vantablack – the blackest known substance in the world – that mystify us with their extraordinary light-absorbing properties; and seemingly depthless voids opening within the gallery, drawing us in with a thrilling sense of vertigo.
The exhibition also introduces dramatic recent works: visceral paintings and sculptures that confront us with the fragility of human existence, as well as several brand new works that will appear to turn the world inside out and upside down, including a pair of monumental installations in the artist’s signature red.
