This autumn, Assembly brings together 35 members and fellows of the Royal Society of Sculptors at Hypha Gallery South Bank, following its inaugural presentation in Sunderland earlier this year. Opening during Frieze season, the exhibition brings a diverse group of established sculptors into a new architectural and cultural context, creating an opportunity for audiences, collectors, curators and artists to encounter contemporary sculpture beyond the conventional gallery framework.

Curated by Alexandra Carr MRSS and Alex Breeze of Breeze Creatives, Assembly began in Sunderland as an experiment in artistic freedom, exchange and collaboration. The London presentation continues that spirit while allowing the works to enter into dialogue with the distinctive context of Southbank and the international activity surrounding Frieze.
The exhibition brings together practices spanning installation, object-making, architectural intervention, film, performance and material experimentation. Across the exhibition, sculpture moves between the intimate and monumental, the poetic and political, the familiar and unexpected.
