Anish Kapoor will unveil a major exhibition of his new
which will explore the shift between two and three dimensions.
The show at London's Lisson Gallery will include three large structures that are a hybrid of painting, sculpture and anamorphic objects, as well as a pair of red stainless steel mirrors and works on paper made over the past six years.
The latest pieces, mainly in a maroon-red palette of colours, relate to and expand on Kapoor's experiments with painted silicone that he showed at his last London show two years ago.
The triptych of paintings Internal Object in Three Parts (2013-15) was first exhibited at Lisson Gallery in 2015, and then travelled to the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam and was later shown alongside a wider selection in Rome.
The maroon colour palette, which darkens to an earthy black, shows Kapoor's continuing interest in "the interior void and the 'dirty corner' of the world's material and psychic realities", the gallery said.
Kapoor has been represented by the Lisson Gallery since 1982 and this will be his sixteenth exhibition there.
In May he will present his installation Descension, a black whirlpool, in Brooklyn Bridge Park as part of the Public Art Fund's celebrations in New York.
