Whiteread White Bread Research Paper

Satisfactory Essays

Before creating House, Whiteread had previously exhibited her sculpture Ghost, a plaster cast of the inside of a room in a Victorian house, at the Chisenhale Gallery in 1990. House was made as a similar work on a larger scale, including not just a single room, but an entire house. Artangel, a London-based arts organization, commissioned the work. It was contracted that the selected house would have been already scheduled for demolition and that the piece would be temporary, the structure had to be free-standing so it would be visible from all sides.
