WHAT
The exhibition follows the retrospective dedicated to the late Swiss sculptor’s (1920-2012) work at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris last year. This latest gallery retrospective exhibition retraces 50 years of his practice, looking back over his stylistic development. Spanning key sculptural typologies, the ground floor of the gallery brings his tender, solitary early standing and reclining figures into conversation with the abstract volumes of his late half-figures, while the walls of the 1st floor space become home to a focused presentation of his reliefs.

WHY
With a practice that is characterised by a lifelong preoccupation with the human figure and by a process in intense union with his medium, both of which are central to all the works on view, the exhibition bears witness to several stylistic periods that broadly correspond to the artist’s shifting relationship to figuration and abstraction.
