» Nathan Coley
Turner Prize shortlisted artist Nathan Coley has over the last decade helped to break down our ideas of space and the built environment.
His work also explores our relationship to political borders and limitations, religious frontiers and ideals; investigating how these ideas change over time and how we come to understand these ideologies according to different locations, contexts and personal perspectives.
Central to the exhibition is Palace (2008) a largescale wooden sculpture which takes the form of a Western saloon bar. Like a film set, the 1880s style Western facade is deliberately false and features five words – wealth, belief, land, mind and life.
Nathan Coley, De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill-on-Sea, until 21 September
