Nissen Richards Studio has designed ‘Abstract Erotic’ at The Courtauld Gallery: a unique chance to see extraordinary sculptures by Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse and Alice Adams in one place – three pioneering artists of the 20th century.  Open until 14 September, this is the first time The Courtauld has staged an ambitious group exhibition of this kind, with three-dimensional works suspended from the ceiling and abstract sculpture filling the gallery spaces in bold and unconventional ways.

The ‘Lifeblood’ exhibition, now open at MUNCH in Oslo and designed by Nissen Richards Studio, juxtaposes Munch’s art with medical objects and images, such as a baby incubator, glass sputum bottles, a vaccine certificate, archival photographs and nursing badges. Together, the artworks and these historical items ask provocative questions about our modern experiences of health and illness, birth and death, the giving and receiving of care.

Now open, the exhibition ‘Turner’s Vision at Petworth’, designed by Nissen Richards Studio, offers a fascinating insight into J.M.W. Turner’s artistic approach, experiments with colour, materials and techniques and relationship with Petworth and Petworth’s owner, George O’Brien Wyndham, 3rd Earl of Egremont. Petworth House in East Sussex is a National Trust property dating from the late 17th century. The exhibition runs until 16 November 2025.
