Stack

The Royal Festival Hall is currently playing host to Stack,

Stack is a commission by 2007 Paul Hamlyn Foundation artist award-winner Phyllida Barlow, one of the most influential teachers and artists working in Britain today.

Barlow's recent work emerges from a 40-year career in which she has explored many of the aspects of post-Minimalism: the effect of gravity on materials and the relation of the sculpture to the viewing space.

Stack is running on Level 1 of the Royal Festival Hall until Monday June 9th.
