Bridget Riley is one of the most significant and original painters of our time. This Sunley Room exhibition enables visitors to investigate how Riley's work relates to the National Gallery Collection.

The exhibition focuses upon Bridget Riley's most recent paintings. Two of Riley's works have been made directly on to the walls of the exhibition space. Riley and her studio have created a new wall drawing, 'Composition with Circles 7', especially for the longest wall of the Sunley Room. In addition a version of the wall-painting, 'Arcadia' - last seen at the major 2008 retrospective in Paris - has been recreated on a larger scale.
