"Among the works on view is "Non Object (Plane)" (2010), a folded sheet of highly polished stainless steel that leans against the wall with an almost improbable lightness. Its mirrored surface refracts the surrounding space, blurring the boundary between object and illusion. In "Double Vertigo" (2012), paired concave forms create a compounded optical pull, subtly disorienting viewers as reflections collapse inward."
"A focused presentation of mirror sculptures by Anish Kapoor has opened in New York's Lisson Gallery under the title 'Mirror Works', bringing together pieces created between 2010 and the present. Known for transforming perception into a physical experience, Kapoor approaches sculpture not as a static object but as a spatial event. His reflective surfaces bend architecture, swallow light and return distorted images of the viewer, turning the gallery into an immersive environment that changes with every movement."
A focused presentation at New York's Lisson Gallery gathers Anish Kapoor's mirror sculptures from 2010 to the present. Polished stainless-steel forms manipulate scale, color, volume and material to destabilize viewers' sense of space. Reflective surfaces bend architecture, swallow light and return distorted images, transforming the gallery into an immersive environment that shifts with movement. Key works include "Non Object (Plane)" (2010), a folded sheet that refracts its surroundings; "Double Vertigo" (2012), paired concave forms that collapse reflections inward; "Untitled" (2023), a cuboid organized around a reflective central void; and "Stave (Red)" (2015), which adds lacquered red to heighten interiority and tension.
