Emily Young: A Private Sales Exhibition

London, September 2018 – January 2019


This September, Christie’s presents an outdoor exhibition of new works by sculptor Emily Young. Named ‘Britain’s greatest living stone sculptor’ by the Financial Times, Young’s onyx, marble and Purbeck freestone sculptures celebrate the natural beauty of stone, combining traditional carving skills with technology to produce works that feel both contemporary yet ancient in their timeless serenity. On display across various London locations, all sculptures on view in this exhibition are offered for private sale. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
