“ ARCO, the International Contemporary Art Fair that held its first edition in 1982, constitutes one of the main art market platforms on the international circuit of art promotion and diffusion. ARCO has two calendar dates: ARCOmadrid, which takes place in the Spanish capital in the month of February, and in recent years, ARCOlisboa, held in Lisbon in the month of May. Both fairs gather together galleries, artists, professionals and institutions, converting the two capitals in epicentres of contemporary art and its market.”

SCULPTURE IN THE CITY

Thrilled to be among the selected artists to the 9th edition of Sculpture in the city, London, UK, with the artwork "Series Industrial Series I" (2018).

Location: Cullum Street, London
Curated by
Lacuna Projects
Installed by Mtec

www.sculptureinthecity.org.uk

Sculpture in the City is an urban sculpture park, set amongst the architectural landmarks in the City’s insurance district. This dynamic project, where artworks are installed for up to a year, responds to the area’s ever-evolving urban environment by making use of newly created public spaces, or spaces previously unused or inaccessible. These sculptures create an art trail woven through the contemporary towers and historic alleyways of the City’s oldest working district. The sculptures add new layers of meaning, playing with the area’s identity and encouraging visitors to see this part of the City in a new light.

Sculpture in the City is delivered by the City of London Corporation in partnership with Aon, Aviva, Beaumont, Bloomberg, British Land, Brookfield Properties, CC Land, Hiscox, London & Oriental, Nuveen Real Estate, Tenacity, Tower 42 and TwentyTwo.

The full line-up of artists is as follows: Salvatore Arancio, Reza Aramesh, Elisa Artesero, Shaun C Badham, Jyll Bradley, Nathan Coley, Marisa Ferreira, Leo Fitzmaurice, Kevin Francis Gray, Clare Jarrett, Juliana Cerqueira Leite, Michael Lyons, Nancy Rubins, Nina Saunders, Jennifer Steinkamp, Do Ho Suh, Jonathan Trayte (autumn 2019), Patrick Tuttofuoco and Lawrence Weiner.
