Follow
Kistefos

Kistefos presents the first major exhibition in Norway of works by the preeminent British sculptor Sir Tony Cragg. The exhibition in The Twist comprises 19 sculptures, including key works from the Christen Sveaas’ Art Foundation and Collection.

Cragg’s sculptures explore the interplay between materials, forms, negative and positive spaces whilst pushing to find new relationships between humans and the material world. The presentation spans the artists prolific 5decade career; from early found object ‘assemblage’ works inspired by the Arte Povera movement and ‘readymades’, to the technically sophisticated sculptures created in recent years. The artist works in bronze, steel, aluminium, wood, plastic, glass and wax – pushing and challenging the possibilities of these materials. Lauded as one of the world’s most accomplished sculptors, Cragg’s practice is fueled by a lifelong fascination of geology, landscape and relations to natural history.
