The inaugural exhibition in the new Gabrielle Jungels-Winkler Galleries at the Royal Academy is LANDSCAPE, one of the three concurrent London exhibitions by Tacita Dean. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect but was really impressed by the scale and sensitivity of the work shown. Zooming in and out is an essential part of the experience (I use those terms deliberately).
Here’s a view through to The Montafon Letter, a huge chalk drawing on blackboard of a mountain (there’s a bit more to it than just that). Majesty, one of a series of works on paper from 2016
Cloud drawings, also from 2016, in front of her collection of round stones.I really liked the contrast of jade reflected in the glass frame of this massive print Quarantania.Her film Antigone is also on show – I wasn’t able to see all of it so will complete the experience on my next visit.
