Aerial opens at White Cube New York
Coinciding with the opening of Frieze New York, White Cube presents ‘Aerial’, an exhibition of new work by Antony Gormley which brings together two recent developments in the artist’s practice.
Aerial, the work that gives its title to the show as a whole, is an orthogonal branching matrix that measures and catalyses the distinct architecture of the ground floor gallery.
Upstairs are three over-life-size cast iron ‘Big Double Blockworks’ that explore physical closeness in a radically reduced geometric language while paradoxically inviting strong, emotional responses in the viewer.
