Rachel Whiteread's Internal Objects at Gagosian London challenges perceptions with new casts and sculptures

The exhibition Internal Objects by Rachel Whiteread is on display at Gagosian in London from 12 April to 6 June. This collection features works created over the last five years that move away from her typical monolithic casts. Included are untitled pieces made from papier-mâché, resin, and bronze, emphasizing presence through their outlines instead of absence. Notable sculptures such as Poltergeist (2020) and Doppelgänger (2020–21) portray damaged white-painted sheds. Some wall-mounted pieces mimic disassembled cardboard but are actually bronze, while others appear concrete yet are crafted from papier-mâché. Untitled (Pinboard) (2019) employs translucent resin and steel to create negative cabinet doors, presenting a challenge to viewers with their unsettling presence and familiar shapes.
