Barakat Contemporary is thrilled to announce that El Anatsui will create the annual large-scale Hyundai Commission at the Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall.
“El Anatsui is responsible for some of the most unique and unforgettable sculptures in recent times and we are delighted that he will tackle the Turbine Hall this autumn for the annual Hyundai Commission. Anatsui’s much-loved Ink Splash II (2012) in Tate’s collection enchants visitors wherever it’s shown, and we can’t wait to see how this inventive artist will approach a space like the Turbine Hall.” - Frances Morris, Director of Tate Modern
The El Anatsui commission is curated by Tate Modern’s Osei Bonus and Dina Akhmadeeva. Tate in partnership with Hyundai Artlab.
The Tate commission will run 10 October 2023 - 14 April 2024.
