ADFAS PERTH arts talk: THE BODY AS A PLACE: THE SCULPTURE OF ANTONY GORMLEY by Anna Moszynska

In Australia Antony Gormley is best known for his Lake Ballard figures but internationally for his iconic Angel of the North sculpture, which is imposingly situated beside the A1, a main thoroughfare in the north of England. Anna Moszynska has known Gormley since he was a student and written on the artist’s drawings so is uniquely positioned to deliver a unique perspective on the development of this major British sculptor and his fascination with the body as a place – both of experience and of interaction with its surroundings.
Anna Moszynska is a London-based lecturer and writer specialising in contemporary art. She has taught at Sotheby’s Institute, The City Lit, the Royal Academy and Tate London plus lectured in cities ranging from Dubai to New York. Anna’s books include Abstract Art (1990) and Sculpture Now (2013), both published by Thames & Hudson. She enjoys introducing art to audiences in a lively and approachable way to make modern and contemporary art both accessible and interesting.
