Whitechapel Gallery – Sonia Boyce & Lygia Clark

Paper Voucher Required

Exhibition Dates: 2 October – 12 January 2025.

This Autumn, Whitechapel Gallery presents two exhibitions especially conceived to be in dialogue with each other. Lygia Clark: The I and the You and Sonia Boyce: An Awkward Relation explore pivotal moments in the artists’ careers, where each began experimenting with participatory practices.

Although separated by time and geography, and working in different cultural and socio-political contexts, the artists share a deep interest in addressing and shifting the relationship between artist, artwork and audiences, often inviting direct engagement with their works, including touch, manipulation, even inhabitation.
