White Cube Bermondsey is pleased to present an exhibition of works by Katharina Grosse, her first with the gallery since her 2002 exhibition at the former Hoxton Square location.

This is the first major UK presentation to fully encompass the breadth and scale of Grosse’s expansive approach to painting. The exhibition brings together new works made in her New Zealand studio alongside sculpture and large-scale immersive works sprayed in situ, and includes rarely seen canvases from the artist’s personal archive.

Across Grosse’s work, the painted image moves freely between canvas, architecture and ground, driven by her compulsion to take over space with painting and a belief in colour as an immediate, visceral force – one that has the capacity to alter our perception of reality.

Tom Morton is a curator, writer and regular contributor to frieze, ArtReview and Art Basel Stories. He has curated over 70 exhibitions, both as a curator at Hayward Gallery, London, and Cubitt Gallery, London, and as an independent curator. His recent and forthcoming exhibitions include ‘A Room Hung With Thoughts: British Painting Now’ at Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas (2025), and ‘You Must Change Your Life’ at Grimm, New York (2026). Morton is the author of numerous monographic catalogue essays on artists including Glenn Brown, Rashid Johnson, Pierre Huyghe, Christian Marclay and Rose Wylie, among many others.
