Exhibitions-Anish Kapoor- Monadic Singularity-Liverpool Cathedral.

Exhibitions

14 Aug

I really like Liverpool Cathedral and I really like Anish Kapoor, so when the two are together, you must visit.

‘To celebrate its centenary in 2024, Liverpool Cathedral is thrilled to present an exciting and UK-first exhibition by the internationally acclaimed sculptor Anish Kapoor.

One of the most innovative and influential artists of our time, Kapoor is renowned for his iconic works, such as Cloud Gate in Chicago and the Orbit Tower at the Olympic Stadium in London. This landmark exhibition, titled ‘Monadic Singularity’, marks the first time Kapoor has presented a solo exhibition in a UK Cathedral and brings his extraordinary art to Liverpool for the first time in over 40 years since his show at the Walker Art Gallery in 1983.

Staged in the spiritual context of the cathedral, where significant moments in life such as birth and death are celebrated and ritualised, Kapoor’s artworks provide connection and inspire awe.’

It was really good, especially in such a giant space. The pieces are spread around so not only can you look at those you can browse the Cathedral and have a cup of tea.

Also, I have a weird memory of seeing his Cloud Gate sculpture in Chicago. This was 2005 so almost 20 years ago. I will have to go through my pictures wherever they are and hope that I did.
