Located in the rolling Oxfordshire countryside, the Albion Fields is a newly opened sculpture park. Only a short train ride from the city of London, the converted farm features open vistas, secluded woodland, and a range of world-class sculptural pieces. The fielded area was once home to a farm and has since been converted into an outdoor gallery space.
The first show at the Albion Fields was conceived by Goodman Gallery, Marian Goodman Gallery, Konig Galerie, and Lisson Gallery. In partnership, the team presents works by 26 leading contemporary artists. The exhibition currently features works y David Adjaye, Alicja Kwade, Daniel Buren, Ai Weiwei, and many more. The pieces cohabit the landscape with flora and fauna and will be on view until September 25th, 2021.
