Anthony Caro: Interior and Exterior

Anthony Caro’s works over the last two decades explored the relationship between architecture and sculpture, interior and exterior space. Karen Wilkin traces the development of this avenue in Caro’s career, culminating in the commission for St John the Baptist, Bourbourg, Pas-de-Calais. This 13th-century building has been treated by the artist as a sculptural volume in which Caro has erected structures that penetrate and animate the space. Karen Wilkin has written an illuminating text which will capture the attention of a wide audience, bringing new interpretations and revelations about this aspect of Caro’s work.
