This summer, Saatchi Gallery presents The Sun and The Moon: Art Inspired by the Celestial, a major exhibition exploring how the two most powerful and enduring phenomena in the sky have inspired creativity, curiosity and belief throughout human history and across different cultures. Supported by headline sponsor Cazenove Capital, the exhibition opens to the public on 5 June and runs until 8 September.
Occupying two floors of the Gallery and spanning nine major exhibition spaces, the show presents artworks, installations, and objects that reveal how artists have responded to the Sun and the Moon. From ancient mythologies and early cosmologies to contemporary art and popular culture, the exhibition explores the profound influence these celestial bodies continue to have on human imagination.
