Kapoor's first China solo show
Anish Kapoor, the UK artist whose gigantic, enigmatic creations that have taken the global art world by storm since 1980s, is staging his first China solo, a two-part show held at the CAFA Art Museum and the Taimiao Art Museum in Beijing.
The CAFA show features four monumental projects central to the artist's recent practice, and a number of models of works chronicling his decades-long exploration.
The exhibition's second leg that opened last Sunday at the 600-year-old Taimiao Art Museum highlights a roster of Kapoor's earlier creations, including his break-out installation 1000 Names, and some of his influential, interactive stainless steel sculptures.
