Rachel Whiteread to get UK-US retrospective

The Turner Prize-winning British sculptor Rachel Whiteread is to receive the rare honour of a retrospective in London and Washington, DC. The exhibition is due to open at Tate Britain in 2017, and the National Gallery of Art (NGA) has pencilled it in for 2018-19, spokeswomen for the institutions confirm.

The London show is being organised by Ann Gallagher, the Tate’s director of collections (British art), while Molly Donovan, the associate curator of Modern and contemporary art at the NGA, is in charge of the exhibition in the US capital.

The artist, who declined to comment on her transatlantic retrospective, has created a work of public art for Governors Island, which overlooks New York Harbour; it is due to be unveiled in spring 2017. Meanwhile, exhibitions of new work opened in New York last month, at Luhring Augustine’s Chelsea gallery and Bushwick space (until 19 and 20 December respectively).
