Description
Showcases works from the past 40 years of one of Britain’s most acclaimed living artists
In the spring of 2024, ARKEN Museum of Modern Art presents the first solo exhibition in Scandinavia featuring one of Britain’s most renowned artists. In his monumental and spectacular installations, Anish Kapoor explores the tension between mass and emptiness, between what can be seen and what cannot. This is evident when he invites viewers to let their gaze disappear into his ‘black holes’ – the paradoxical manifestation of invisibility that fundamentally challenges the experience of the spectator. Kapoor’s works evoke both awe and a sense of disquiet; they are often executed on a very large scale and are extremely physical and present.
The richly illustrated exhibition catalog delves into Anish Kapoor’s work through selected pieces and texts, opening up a wide range of philosophical, poetic, physical, and existential questions.
