Lothar Götz: Composition for a Staircase Photograph Andy Keate
The Gallery is closed until further notice due to the impact of COVID-19. We are currently reviewing our 2020 summer exhibition programme – please check back here or on our social channels for updates.
A site-specific mural by German abstract artist Lothar Götz (b.1963), commissioned to mark the 10th anniversary of the opening of our contemporary wing.
Influenced by Kandinsky, the Bauhaus and Ben Nicholson, Götz’s large-scale geometric murals create an intuitive dialogue with the architecture and social function of a space.
If you have a staircase that is completely white and you add colour, it doesn’t change the function but it does completely change our experience going up and down the stairs.
