Giuseppe Penone is renowned rightly as one of the most important artists of his generation.
Emerging through the late 1960s and 1970s as an exponent of Arte Povera, an avant garde Italian art movement that has had lasting effect, his career has gone from strength to strength.
His work in the 2007 Biennale of Venice, for example, was a highlight in a choice selection of international contemporary art.
This major exhibition, on both floors of Ikon Gallery, ranges from early seminal sculptures, drawings and photographs, through to recent and new pieces
Giuseppe Penone’s exhibition is supported by the Italian Cultural Institute, the Stanley Thomas Johnson Foundation and the Henry Moore Foundation
