Rong Bao & others @ The Artist’s Garden

M A R Y M A R Y, a major exhibition of public, outdoor sculpture in central London by nine women artists. The exhibition features commissioned works by Rong Bao, Candida Powell–Williams and Alice Wilson, adapted works by Lucy Gregory and LR Vandy and existing works by Olivia Bax, Frances Richardson, Holly Stevenson and Virginia Overton.  M A R Y M A R Y reveals a new and rich sculptural language for public space in the context of the Garden. It reframes the characterisation of forceful women as ‘contrary’, long embedded in our national consciousness, as exemplified by the nursery rhyme from which the exhibition borrows its title.
