E XHIBITIONS

Phyllida Barlow: Cul De Sac

Now until 10 Jun – Royal Academy of Arts

www.royalacademy.org.uk

Housed across three rooms, these new sculptures have one thing in

common: they’re massive! Jumbo-sized constructions that loom over

humans the same way chunks of ancient monuments in the British Museum

reduce everyone who walks past them to Borrower-size. Unlike the flawless

stonemasonry and marble of the RA’s Burlington House, Barlow creates her

art from solid concrete blocks, gnarled old wood, gloomy grey metal and

bumpy bits of gauze slathered in paint.

Lee Krasner: Living Colour

Now until 01 Sep – Barbican Centre

www.barbican.org.uk

As the title suggests, one reason for buying a ticket is to check out Krasner's

vivid, large-scale canvases that explode in fireworks of colour. But that’s not

all as you'll also be able to see her superb charcoal drawings and some early

self-portraits.

Leonardo da Vinci: A Life in DrawingNow until 13 Oct – The Queen's Gallery

www.rct.uk

Marking the 500th anniversary of the death of Leonardo da Vinci, this exhibition

will bring together more than 200 of the Renaissance master's greatest drawings

in 1519, the collection will provide an unparalleled insight into the workings of

Leonardo's mind and reflect the full range of his interests, including painting,

sculpture, architecture, anatomy, engineering, cartography, geology and botany
