Members of the Ede Circle and Director’s Circle patrons groups visited the recent Antony Gormley exhibition at the RA in October 2019 and were shown around the galleries during a private tour before they opened to the public.

The group were privileged to meet Antony Gormley himself underneath his incredible new work Matrix III, 2019 (left) and were able to learn more about the work directly from the artist and to ask him questions about his practice.

The show brought back memories of SUBJECT, Gormley’s show at Kettle’s Yard in 2018, and it was fascinating to see his works in a space so distinct from our own. We are very grateful to the RA for the special opportunity to view the exhibition out-of-hours.

The tour was one of a programme of special events organised for patrons of Kettle’s Yard. Please click here for more information about the different patrons groups at Kettle’s Yard. If you would like to become a patron, please contact development@kettlesyard.cam.ac.uk.
