Exhibition of the Week Folkestone Triennial
The contemporary art scene hits the seaside in this admired festival of experimental interventions whose eclectic mix this year ranges from sculptor of found objects Bill Woodrow to Turner prize-nominated Lubaina Himid, among an array that also takes in Emily Peasgood, Amalia Pica, Sinta Tantra and more.
• Folkestone venues from 2 September to 5 November. Also this week Nature Morte
Contemporary twists (from twisted contemporaries) on the still life tradition should make this a highly diverting exhibition. Mat Collishaw, Cindy Wright, Nancy Fouts and Gabriel Orozco are among the emblematists of mortality playing with fruit and bones.
• Guildhall gallery, London, 7 September to 2 April. Leonardo, Michelangelo and Raphael around 1500
Am I dreaming? Does that really say the dream team of the three greatest artists of the Renaissance are exhibiting together at the National Gallery? And for free? To call this a display of genius is a simple factual statement.
• National Gallery, London, from 2 September to January. Bruce Nauman
A scintillating selection of the master provocateur’s works from the outstanding Artist Rooms collection. This follow-up to the same team’s magical Louise Bourgeois display proves that Artist Rooms truly is the pearl of Tate Modern’s free displays.
• Tate Modern, London, until July 2018 Antony Gormley
The renowned sculptor is taking over the Kent seashore – as well as participating in the Folkestone Triennial (above) he has a statue in the salty brine off Margate.
• Turner Contemporary, Margate, until 5 November. Masterpiece of the Week |
