Haegue Yang: Leap Year
WED 9 OCT – SUN 5 JAN
We can't wait for our next exhibition! Haegue Yang’s work spans a vast range of media – from paper collage to performative sculpture and immense sensorial installations.
Equally as wide-ranging, her inspiration draws on diverse histories and customs, including East Asian traditions and folklore, modernism, contemporary art history and nature.
Leap Year is the first major survey of the internationally celebrated artist in the UK.
And don't forget: under-30s and Lambeth residents can get tickets for just £9, and under-12s go free.
