Exhibitions & Art, Sculpture.
Launched by Mayfair Art Weekend in Partnership with Art in Mayfair. The Mayfair Sculpture Trail will be taking place for the first time this year as new initiative for the seventh edition of Mayfair Art Weekend in partnership with Art in Mayfair. Renowned galleries within Mayfair will present outstanding artworks in iconic locations, from Bond Street, Cork Street, Burlington Arcade and to the tree-lined grandeur of Grosvenor Square from 1-31 October. From Regent Street to Park Lane, and Oxford Street to Piccadilly, sculptures in the public realm, both permanent and temporary, are always free to explore in one of the world's most prestigious and vibrant art neighbourhoods. Year-round, you'll find Bruce Mclean's Handbag Heads at One Hanover Street and the Allies by Lawrence Holofcener on New Bond Street. Look up and you'll discover Antony Gormley's Cinch perched on the north facade of Burlington Arcade, or Henry Moore's Time-Life Screen above Hermes - what was Time Life Building - also on New Bond Street. This October visitors will be able to explore new outdoor installations, which promise to interrupt familiar paths through Mayfair. Here are some of the not-to-be-missed highlights: Pablo Reinoso, Simple Talk (Left), 2017. Next to Elisabeth Frink's Horse and Rider on New Bond Street, the tendrils of Pablo Reinoso's sculptural seat, Simple Talk (Left), will invite you to sit on the artwork. Presented by Waddington Custot, Pablo Reinoso's iconic Spaghetti Bench series propelled the artist to international renown. Atelier van Lieshout, Dokwerker (Docker). Amongst the celebrated perfumers and luxury boutiques of Burlington Arcade, Dokwerker (Docker) by Atelier van Lieshout stands tall. For three decades AvL has produced work that straddles art, design, and architecture; sharing recurring themes of systems, power, life, sex, death, and the human individual amidst the greater whole. Carpenters Workshop Gallery is delighted to present this new bronze edition by the artist. Kalliopi Lemos, Bag of Aspirations, 2019. Positioned in front of luxury department store Fenwick, Kalliopi Lemos resumes the female fighter's allegory of her 'Tools of Endearment' series by equipping her giantess' armour with an object linked with woman's appearance - a handbag. Presented by Gazelli Art House, the artist has chosen an iconic model as point of reference.
