The Top 7 Art Exhibitions to see in London this week 17/06/18

Feel good, hoodies, a breathing sculpture, lie down, wobbly London, combs, a bustling market and Italian glamour.
Artangel has always gone where others fear to tread. They collaborate with artists who defy boundaries to give form to extraordinary ideas.
The art they produce boldly responds to the environment in which we live. It’s often unlike anything you have experienced before. They have taken over an empty prison, uncovered an underground opera house, made sculpture from solid air, commissioned a mile-high column of light, and a thousand-year-long piece of music.
They celebrate the artists of today and identify those of tomorrow. Developing daring new works that reveal a different side to the world we live in.
