The Curve Hours: Tue - Sun 11am to 7pm — Journey through landscapes reshaped by extreme force in a new exhibition that brings together film and sculpture by North American artist Lucy Raven. Focusing on the biggest dam removal and river restoration project in US history, Murderers Bar is the final instalment in Raven's moving image series, The Drumfire. Using aerial and underwater imaging, the camera captures a landscape in flux, following the immense release of water as it carves its own path for the first time in over 100 years. The exhibition also features a new kinetic light sculpture, Hardpan, commissioned in collaboration with the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston. Echoing Raven's film work, the sculpture channels the monumental energy of industrial force – though this time, it's the gallery that's transformed, and we, the viewers, who feel its impact. Following its debut at the Barbican, Lucy Raven: Rounds will open at the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston in 2026. Hardpan commissioned by Barbican, London and the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston. Murderers Bar co-commissioned by Vancouver Art Gallery and The Vega Foundation. Our thanks to Lisson Gallery for their support.
