Survey opens at Nasher Sculpture Center
The Nasher Sculpture Center presents the first major museum survey of Antony Gormley’s work in the United States. The exhibition, which spans the breadth of Gormley’s career from experimental work of the early 1980s to the present, in the words of the artist, ‘investigates what sculpture is and what it can do’. In addition to the work shown at the museum, the artist will debut a project installed on the rooftops of skyscrapers in and around Downtown Dallas.
Antony Gormley has said of his show at the Nasher, ‘For me, sculpture is a thing in the world in a world of things, a physical manifestation of thinking and feeling through making. Like every show that I make, this exhibition is a test site for sculpture and for how the work might animate a viewer. The beholder’s share is an intrinsic part of a sculpture's making.’
Survey: Antony Gormley will be on view from 13 September 2025 to 4 January 2026.
