Risk
What happens when art and risk collide?
This autumn, see artists leap into the void, abandon control and push art to the limit as creative risk-taking comes under the spotlight in the first major UK exhibition to explore risk in art.
Experience how artists have intentionally embraced the unpredictable and uncontrollable, from chance procedures to political risk; from the power of natural forces to the culture of risk management.
Francis Al每s runs into the eye of a tornado; Bas Jan Ader sails out to sea in search of the miraculous to tragically never return; ORLAN undergoes plastic surgery; Marina Abramovic鈥檚 points a a bow and arrow at her own heart; Pedro Reyes creates musical instruments out of firearms and Ruth Proctor freefalls in the gallery鈥�
Walk into a physical, audio, intellectual and emotional unknown with over 60 pivotal works from the mid-20th century to the present day by major international artists including Marina Abramovi膰, Eva Hesse, Yves Klein, Marcel Duchamp, Andreas Gursky, Gerhard Richter, Carsten H枚ller, Yoko Ono, Fischli & Weiss, Jose D谩vila, ORLAN, Chim鈫慞om and Ai Weiwei, as well as key works by JMW Turner and Maze: Risk edition by Jasmin Vardimon Company.
