Cornelia Parker RA: Being and Un-being
5 September 2023 - 18 August 2024
Academicians' Room | Keeper's House
Discover recent prints by Cornelia Parker RA.
This display presents Cornelia Parker RA’s polymer gravure etchings from four series: Thirty Pieces of Silver Exposed, One Day This Glass Will Break, Fox Talbot’s Articles of Glass and Through a Glass Darkly.
Elected to the Academy as a sculptor, Parker is best known for her large-scale, often site-specific installations where she explores the fragility of existence and the transformation of matter. Here, she translates this through print. Showcasing her continued involvement with materials like silver and glass, these works use antique objects and vintage photographic negatives to expose layers of time.
All works are available for sale, generating revenue for the artist and the RA.
Everyone is welcome to view this display. Please note that the Keeper's House is a membership space. If you are not a member, please enquire at the membership desk.
