Linen walls and a giant horseshoe-shaped plinth are among the creations Zaha Hadid is visiting upon the Hauser & Wirth Colnaghi gallery for its major exhibition of works by sculpture Henry Moore this October.
Together with fellow architect Patrik Schumacher, Hadid is designing the tailor-made plinth on which 12 sculptures will be placed, as well as installing temporary white curved linen walls in one of the gallery's red rooms.
The show, called Ideas for Sculpture, will include 70 drawings and sculptures from the Henry Moore Family Collection, many never shown publicly before, tracing six decades of his career.
"There is an organic flowing quality and a shared sense of interest in form that strongly connect Moore and Zaha's work," says curator Gregor Muir.
"I've been really touched by how much Zaha and Patrick liked the idea. Moore's resonance with contemporary architecture helps us to see his work in a new light."
