Huma Bhabha Encounters: Giacometti  at the Barbican

Bringing together works by Alberto Giacometti and three contemporary artists. Huma Bhabha (May 2025), Mona Hatoum (September 2025) and Lynda Benglis (February 2026). They explore themes and concerns shared by Giacometti.

An excellent way of bringing skills from the past into the future.

There is always more in Art and Creativity if you look further.

Omer Arbel:44

A stroll through the city, coffee in the sunshine and something beautiful at the Barbican. Hundreds of free-poured aluminium arms suspended from the ceiling by thin cables, designed by Omer Arbel and produced by Bocci.

Once attracted and or inspired its always worth investigating further. I got home, logged on to the Internet and found on the Barbican website (when you search Omer Arbel) a great video showing, Behind the Scenes: Building Bocci and Omer Abel’s 44. Wow, Creative teamwork in action.
