The second of the Ben Uri event series for upcoming exhibition Becoming Gustav Metzger, Uncovering the Early Years 1945-59.
Carina Plath (Deputy Director, Sprengel Museum, Hannover Germany) discusses the 'public-ness' of Gustav Metzger's work, his early proposals for monuments and the idea of occupying space by artists, which later is resumed in sculpture projects such as Aequivalenz: Shattered Stones (2007), followed by a Q&A.
