Art Storage for the Abstract Artist

Minimalist art is always a source of contention, but following her esteemed Jewish memorial created in Vienna, Rachel Whiteread’s new exhibition entitled ‘Detached,’ at the Gagosian Gallery in London, is set to be a success. Richard Dorment from the Telegraph suggests that perhaps her work is so well respected due to being “freighted with meaning.”

 
In this exhibition, she takes everyday objects and detaches them from their initial significance by casting them in concrete, plaster or resin. This causes people to think more deeply about the structure of an object, but also consider the people who used them. Objects such as bathtubs and sheds become imbued with meaning rather than existing as a simple, utilitarian object. We’re wondering if Rachel would like to use a crate from our friends at Easycrate for inspiration for a spectacle at her exhibition. Although it goes without saying that plastic crates are so much more than simple objects!
 
In any case, Rachel is always welcome to store her artwork with us here at Cube Fine Art Services, especially having studied her art in Sussex at the local Brighton polytechnic! With our climate controlled storage, we can help maintain the integrity of her unique pieces by protecting them from heat, cold, dust, mould and humidity. Whatever the object, whether it be a shed or the kitchen sink, we will endeavour to find a suitable solution that meets your needs and budget. Contact us today for a service that is second to none in offering bespoke art transport and storage.
