Ernesto Neto at the Hayward Gallery

This summer, renowned Brazilian artist Ernesto Neto is transforming the Hayward Gallery with a series of spectacular installations.

Neto is known for his immersive artworks, often made from stretched lycra, which give the impression of being inside a body. Spices, plastic balls and cushions are used to provide different textures and scents.

Recently, Neto has been exploring a new direction in his work, using steel to produce large-scale structures, one of which will be shown for the first time at the Hayward Gallery.

About Ernesto Neto

Neto was born in 1964 and lives and works in Rio de Janeiro.

He has had major solo exhibitions in New York and Paris and appeared in the Carnegie International (1999) and Venice Biennale (2001).

Last year, he created his largest work to date, called anthropodino, at the Park Avenue Armory in New York.
