BGUK_2382063 - One of Britain’s leading contemporary artists, Cornelia Parker is responsible for some of the most unique and unforgettable artworks of the past thirty years. Driven by curiosity, Parker transforms seemingly everyday objects into extraordinary works of art. Through visual allusions and metaphors, Parker’s works explore contemporary issues such as violence, human rights and environmental disaster. The exhibition will bring together over 90 artworks spanning immersive installations, sculptures, film, photography and drawing, to celebrate the breadth of Parker’s highly experimental and wide-ranging career to date, including two new works shown for the first time. Artworks photographed: - War Room (2015/2022 ) Perforated paper negatives left over from production of Remembrance Day poppies - Perpetual Canon ( 2004 ) Collection of Contemporary of Art Foundation
