Hayward Gallery Lates: Anish Kapoor
The Hayward Gallery opens its doors after hours for a special late-night viewing of Anish Kapoor’s awe-inspiring exhibition.
Returning to the Hayward Gallery nearly 30 years after his first major UK survey, Kapoor transforms the entire space into an immersive environment: towering installations press against walls and floors, while suspended works descend from above to evoke wonder and disorientation.
A curated cross-artform programme – featuring complementary performances and interventions – will be announced shortly, further enriching this after-hours experience.
