“The amazing thing about working with these metallic ‘fabrics’ is that the poverty of the materials used in no way precludes the telling of rich and wonderful stories." ~El Anatsui

October Gallery has been working closely together with El Anatsui since 1993. This show presents a wonderful spread of this artist’s repertoire including some of his iconic and enormous shimmering bottle-top tapestries, his wood sculptures hued with chainsaws, welding torches and power tools and his prints done in collaboration with Factum Arte which are a testament to the the beauty  of the artist’s painstaking process.
