Antony Gormley with Jacqueline Rose at the Royal Academy of Arts

Coinciding with Antony Gormley’s White Cube Bermondsey exhibition ‘Body Politic’, the artist will be joined in conversation with writer and scholar Jacqueline Rose at the Royal Academy of Arts.

Currently on view until 28 January, Antony Gormley’s ‘Body Politic’ investigates our species’ relationship with its industrially made habitat. For Gormley, this comes at an urgent moment in time when our need for refuge is in dynamic tension with our need to roam: our fundamental migratory nature.

Admission is free and places will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Gormley is the creator of the life-sized, cast-iron sculpture Another Time, which stands on the Thames foreshore in Limehouse. The sculpture was erected in 2013 by actor Sir Ian Mckellen and can be found next to his pub The Grapes.
