The Royal Academy surpasses themselves in the choice of including a stunning staircase as part of their Summer Exhibition 2015
The Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition is always a spectacular affair and this year they’ve truly surpassed themselves in including a work that takes over a staircase.
The colourful creation, that becomes our Picture of the Week, is the work of Jim Lambie and is named ‘Zobop’. Glasgow born and Turner Prize nominated Lambie’s works have appeared at the Venice Biennale and of them he has commented:
