One of the most distinctive artists working today, El Anatsui is best-known for his cascading metallic sculptures constructed of thousands of recycled bottle-tops articulated with copper wire. Repurposing found materials into dazzling works of abstract art, Anatsui’s work explores themes that include the environment, consumption and trade. His site-specific work for the Turbine Hall will be open to the public from 10 October 2023 – 14 April 2024. The book will be lavishly illustrated with photos of this new sculpture, while also serving as an introduction to the artist's life and work. Newly commissioned texts from a fascinating range of perspectives, along with a conversation between Anatsui and curator Osei Bonsu, are accompanied by images from the artist's studio.
