Thaddaeus Ropac Presents Oliver Beer Exhibition 'The Sky in the Cave' Through July 31
On June 22, 2026, Thaddaeus Ropac presented the exhibition “The Sky in the Cave” by Oliver Beer at its Dover Street location. The show runs through July 31 and features Beer’s “Resonance Paintings” series, in which cave noises are converted into abstract compositions by using sounds and frequencies to direct pigment. The project incorporates music, film, and installation to create an immersive viewing experience.

The exhibition coincides with the release of a limited-edition vinyl soundtrack documenting Beer’s recordings with Rufus Wainwright inside a prehistoric painted cave in the Dordogne. This interdisciplinary presentation underscores Beer’s ongoing integration of auditory and visual media, offering collectors insight into his evolving practice. It also reflects Thaddaeus Ropac’s continued focus on artists who merge sound, site, and material processes.
