Anish Kapoor on Scale, Void, and the Body at Hayward Retrospective

Anish Kapoor's retrospective at the Hayward Gallery in London, opening in 2026, features new and iconic works including the massive inflatable 'All of Nothing' (2026) that fills the first gallery, and 'Ha Makom', a large red pigment piece. The show spans his career from early pigment sculptures to recent visceral silicone works like 'Ritual Expiation' (2025-26). Kapoor discusses his interest in the body, void, and the tension between materiality and immateriality. He reflects on scale, citing Barnett Newman, and his use of Vantablack for 'non-object' works. The exhibition also includes 'Tsunami' (2018) on the terrace. Kapoor, who won the Turner Prize in 1991 and was knighted in 2013, previously had a major Hayward survey in 1998. The show runs until 18 October.
