MATERIAL WORLD

With the opening of the 'Material World' auction exhibition earlier this month, we have taken the time to look back at the elaborate and controvertial work of contemporary Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos. Below you will find selected images of some of our favourite sculptures.

CHINA: THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

This exquisite exhibition seeks to scrutinize how china has “fuelled the fashionable imagination for centuries”. Beautiful high fashion pieces are positioned against Chinese art, films, imagery and sculptures. We have compiled a collection of our favourite images from The Metropolitan Museum of Art for you to enjoy below.
