Bridget Riley: Learning to See

Turner Contemporary, Margate, United Kingdom

November 22, 2025–May 4, 2026

Turner Contemporary presents Learning to See, an exhibition exploring the ongoing artistic evolution of Bridget Riley’s career. Conceived in close collaboration with the artist, the exhibition survey’s Riley’s enduring connection with the natural world and her career-long study of the sensory experience of sight.

Learning to See includes works from the late 60s, her most recent canvases, and wall paintings from the last decade. The exhibition also brings together preparatory works on paper showing how the practice of drawing has underpinned her working life.
