Future Exhibition Coming September 2026
Es Devlin
Enter the extraordinary world of Es Devlin in the first UK exhibition dedicated to the artist and designer’s 30-year practice in sculpture, performance, language and light.
This is the first museum show in the UK dedicated to Es Devlin’s work, revealing the story behind the artist's extraordinary 30-year practice spanning kinetic stage sculptures to monumental art installations.
Es Devlin has developed her understanding of the audience as a temporary society through collaborations in theatre and opera as well as Olympic ceremonies, Superbowl half-time shows and monumental stadium sculptures in collaboration with some of the world's most celebrated musicians. For the past decade her practice has focused on public choral installations at museums and galleries including the Serpentine and Tate Modern.
Developed in close collaboration with the London-based artist, this luminous monographic exhibition will showcase rare maquettes, sketches, annotated texts and process materials as well as new large scale new projection-mapped sculptures and kinetic installations, conceived especially for this landmark retrospective exhibition.
