| In
pictures: Gormley's 'space drawing' |
|
Turner
Prize-winning artist Antony Gormley has created a 3D "drawing
in space" for his latest installation at a London art gallery...
 |
|
Gormley,
famous internationally for his Angel of the North
sculpture, is the man behind Clearing - a seven-kilometre
raw metal rod which fills the space of the White Cube gallery
|
 |
Arcing
from floor to ceiling and wall to wall, it becomes a complex
matrix apparently without beginning or end, encouraging the
viewer to move through its structure |
 |
As
part of the exhibition, Gormley has placed three body forms
built from individual cubes of steel inside the gallery space |
 |
|
The
figures are seen crouching, standing, and - here - lying,
placed in a way that invites the viewer to negotiate a space
between them. Gormley has referred to his work as "an
attempt to materialise uncertainty"
|
The
installation is at White Cube, 48 Hoxton Square, London N1 until
29 May. Opening hours: Tue - Sat 10 - 6pm
Web: white
cube
