Now open at the Lehmbruck Museum is the most extensive exhibition by Antony Gormley in Germany to date. This exhibition has been conceived as a dialogue between the two artists, showcasing key works created almost a century apart.
Calling on the Body encompasses the entire museum, covering an area of 3,000 square metres, with Gormley’s sculptures acting as punctuation points throughout the building. The exhibition includes a selection of works spanning the breadth of the artist’s practice, from his seminal early lead works to the more recent Slabwork series that transform human body-space into architecture.
