In the Gallery: Antony Gormley at White Cube Mason's Yard | White Cube
Iconic British sculptor Antony Gormley OBE RA was featured in White Cube gallery’s In the Gallery video series.
“The function of lead as this medium that allows matter to become mind, that allows something to be transformed in the mind of the beholder into an imagination of the thing. That was really a breakthrough for me.”
– Antony Gormley
“Representing a major breakthrough in the development of Antony Gormley’s visual language, the early lead works – initiated in the mid-1970s, and developed amid the protracted geopolitical tensions of the Cold War – stand among the most iconic of the artist’s career. ‘WITNESS: Early Lead Works’ reintroduces audiences to these seminal sculptures, tracing how Gormley’s early experimentations with the material laid the groundwork for many subsequent bodies of work.”
