Lygia Pape at Hauser and Wirth

Working with installations and prints, Lygia Pape linked geometrical form to materials and the senses. Pape belonged to a generation of Brazilian artists who wanted to democratise art and re-connect it to a wider audience beyond the traditional art gallery. By looking at three works in detail, we investigate Pape's art and its relationship to the viewer.
