MK Gallery is working with artist and Turner Prize winner Richard Deacon on an ambitious public art project, to be
installed on a roundabout in Milton Keynes during 2017.

Join MK Gallery for this In Conversation event where Richard will present an illustrated talk about his practice and share his proposed design for the sculpture. The event is free but booking is essential.

The commission forms part of MK Gallery’s contribution to MK50, the celebrations to mark the city’s 50th anniversary. The idea comes from an unrealised MK Development Corporation proposal in the 1970s to install a sculpture on every roundabout in Milton Keynes, providing landmarks across the city.

Richard has a longstanding association with Milton Keynes, having collaborated with Bletchley-based firm, Twin Engineering, for much of his steel fabrication work.

The sculpture has been made possible through generous support from a local resident.
