Extract
This major exhibition will be the first show dedicated to his paintings for over 30 years, and the largest display of his works seen in public since his death. The exhibition will reassess this singular figure in art history, and reflect on the enduring influence of his apocalyptic art on painting, cinema and popular spectacle.
