Antony Gormley, Hayward Gallery

Some critics are a little sneery about Gormley. Seeing his work as a bit too populist; crowd pleasing. And it is fair to say it's "me, me, me" all the way with Antony. But, this is the best sculpture show you'll see (until October).

If you can, go on a weekday morning. For an artist whose work revolves around people; having anyone else in your sightline when viewing the work, really destroys the mood. Plus, a couple of the exhibits have restricted access. Most notably Blind Light, the cloud filled box. Which is an arresting, if disorientating experience (you can get the same effect on a bad day's skiing at Whistler, but this saves the airmiles).
