Overview

We are delighted to invite our members to an exclusive Curator’s tour of Language of the Physical: Katherine Gili Sculpture. This exhibition brings together a range of sculptures by Katherine Gili, spanning four decades, from 1980 to 2022.

Gili’s practice is rooted in a deeply physical engagement with materials—particularly steel, heavy-duty paper, and paper clay—and her work has steadily gained recognition in recent years. Most notably, her sculpture Vertical IV (1975) was recently displayed for the first time at Tate Britain as part of their ongoing collection display, Modern and Contemporary British Art (1965–1980), highlighting Gili’s significant contribution to British sculpture.
