The Line (At the Docks 2023)
The Line is an ambitious public art project in East London that connects Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the O2, via the Royal Docks, following the waterways and the line of the Greenwich Meridian. Its outdoor exhibition programme offers a journey through a dynamic urban landscape where everyone can explore art, nature and heritage for free.
As part of its evolving programme, some of the world’s most respected artists including Anish Kapoor (whose sculpture is one of the biggest in the world), Tracey Emin, Gary Hume and Antony Gormley feature along the way. The Royal Docks is home to four incredible artworks by Laura Ford, Larry Achiampong, Yinka Ilori and Madge Gill.
Find out more about the partnership between The Line and the Royal Docks Team and visit The Line’s website for a map of all the artworks and installations.
