Anish Kapoor
Mirrors, dark surfaces and large sculptural forms at the Hayward. An exhibition to approach with your eyes and your sense of space.
Activities South Bank
Contemporary art in a building that asks to be looked at too. Make a current exhibition the centre of a South Bank afternoon.
The sharp concrete forms outside make a useful change of pace from the riverside. Inside, plan around the exhibition you have come for rather than expecting a permanent collection. Admission depends on the programme.
The regular gallery week runs Tuesday to Sunday. Anish Kapoor has a 17:00 closure on 22 September 2026 and selected extended sessions through 18 October; those exceptions appear below. Check the ticket selector for last entry and availability. The photograph dates from June 2025 and does not show the current exhibition.
