BOURNEMOUTH town centre art gallery GIANT is set to launch what could be its biggest exhibition to date this weekend.
The FOREVER: CHANGED exhibition will include works by Gavin Turk, Sarah Hardacre, and Tim Noble and Sue Webster as part of a selection of pieces, many of which coming to the town for the first time.
The show looks at the future people now occupy through a bold, sharp and sometimes humorous lens of major contemporary artists working across a variety of disciplines.
The exhibition, which runs at GIANT in the Bobby’s Building from July 16 to October 16, will feature large-scale light installations, sculptures, video work, collages and paintings.
Works will also be on show from Fabio Lattanzi Antinori, Ron Arad, Mark Jenkins, Hayden Kays, Misha Milovanovich, Kenny Schachter and Mark Titchner.
The exhibition comes as the 15,000 square foot gallery, the largest artist-led space in the UK, celebrates a year since opening.
GIANT’s exhibitions to date have remained true to its promise to be accessible, entertaining, exciting, challenging and open; bringing many of the world’s greatest contemporary artists to Bournemouth for the first time they have garnered visitor figures that rival some of London’s most loved institutions.
Directed by British contemporary Bournemouth-born artist Stuart Semple, GIANT is programmed to feature works by some of the best-known international artists and new pieces by inspiring yet largely unknown creators from around the globe.
