Sarah Lucas

About

One of Britain's leading sculptors, the Gallery presents a new exhibition of Sarah Lucas in a tailor-made commission for the Whitechapel Gallery. Her witty works use inanimate objects to take the shape of bodies, whether the table-top Two Fried Eggs and a Kebab (1992) or Au Naturel (1994) which sees a mattress where fruit, vegetables and a bucket become a readymade portrait of a couple in bed. This is the first major solo exhibition in London of Sarah Lucas's work and assesses the vital role she plays in British art, sculpture and feminism, with iconic works including Unknown Soldier (2003) and the Bunny series and presents new works specially made for the show.
