    Friday, August 2nd, 2024

    An exhibition of new sculpture by Tony Cragg runs at Thaddeus Ropac in Paris Marais from September 7 to October 10. Cragg’s abstract sculptures manifest entirely unprecedented forms that nevertheless spark a sense of recognition as they gesture to the world around us. Focusing on his most recent bodies of work, this exhibition offers a view into the breadth of Tony Cragg’s latest formal developments, which are defined by the British artist’s continual investigation into the possibilities of a wide range of materials and his exploration of both the natural and the man-made worlds.
