Focusing on his most recent bodies of work, this exhibition offers a view into the breadth of Tony Cragg's latest formal developments. Defined by the British artist's continuous investigation into the possibilities of a wide range of materials and his exploration of both the natural and the man-made worlds, his abstract sculptures manifest entirely unprecedented forms that nevertheless spark a sense of recognition and summon an emotional response. The works on view range from intricate stainless steel sculptures from his recent Incidents to a range of softer organic forms, such as his latest Integers. These almost statuesque, polymorphic works appear geologically layered when constructed from plywood or heavy and turned in on themselves when cast in bronze. Juxtaposed with works whose pulsating forms extend outwards, this exhibition highlights how Cragg's practice continues to answer anew what is possible in terms of form.
