New Rhythms: Henri Gaudier-Brzeska

Art, dance and movement in London 1911–1915


2015 marks 100 years since Henri Gaudier-Brzeska died aged 23 in the First World War. His sculpture and drawings reveal an artist constantly experimenting as he sought to capture through art the energy he saw in life.

‘New Rhythms’ includes sculpture, drawings and paintings by Gaudier-Brzeska and his contemporaries David Bomberg, Jacob Epstein, Percy Wyndham Lewis, William Roberts, Auguste Rodin, Helen Saunders and Alexander Archipenko. A contemporary dance and music commission completes the exhibition.

This exhibition is accompanied by a display of contemporary drawings curated by Drawing Room, London.
