 Britain's greatest living sculptor - The Independent A brilliant innovator - Art Review |
 Sir Anthony Caro Early One Morning 1962 (detail) Tate. Presented by the Contemporary Art Society 1965 © The artist, Barford Sculptures Ltd. |
Sir Anthony Caro is widely regarded as one of the world's greatest living sculptors. This major retrospective, presented in the artist's eightieth year, surveys over fifty years of his work. The exhibition is arranged chronologically. Beginning with his figurative work of the 1950s, it surveys his subsequent engagement with abstract form and space during the 1960s and 1970s. It continues with Caro's exploration of the dialogue between sculpture and architecture from the 1980s onwards, combined in his recent work with a renewed involvement with the human figure. |
| This retrospective Anthony Caro fills the Level 2 Exhibition Galleries as well as the central Duveen galleries with significant sculptures from public and private collections in the UK, USA and Europe. Supported by the Anthony Caro Exhibition Supporters Group with assistance from the Henry Moore Foundation.
