Rachel Whiteread presents new sculptural works and photographs in London exhibition
Gagosian Gallery is hosting an exhibition titled 'Substitute' featuring recent sculptures and photographs by Rachel Whiteread at its Davies Street location in London. The show includes large wall-mounted reliefs created by pressing papier-mâché onto aged wooden doors and gates, then applying silver and copper leaf. Also displayed are transparent resin casts of windows in blue and pink colors. Whiteread's practice involves casting industrial and traditional materials to create objects that reference absence and memory, building upon Minimalist principles.
