Liliane Lijn

Friday, 4 November 2011 - Saturday, 26 November 2011

Sir John Soane Museum, 13 Lincolns Inn Fields, Holborn, WC2A 3BP

How Much: Free!
The last we saw of Liliane Lijn was her awesome solo show at Riflemaker back in 2008, for which she'd been fiddling about with something called 'Aerogel' in order to produce a series of works which were somehow futuristic and organic, technical and spiritual, all at the same time.

And now, this November, Lijn - who incidentally was an Issey Miyake model back in the '80s - takes over the Sir John Soane Museum with a series of scultprual work from the 1970s as well as some more recent kinetic light sculptures.

A brilliant artist in a wonderful museum: what's not to like?

Until 26.11.11.
