Workshop: Dearest Art Collector hosted by Ferren Gipson
Location: Blavatnik Building, Level 2
Inspired by Guerrilla Girls’ Dearest Art Collector, join Ferren Gipson and write your own letters to the gallery. In 1985 the Guerrilla Girls began a campaign that targeted museums, dealers, critics and artists who they felt were responsible for, or complicit in, the exclusion of women and non-white artists. What do you want the museum and collection to look like in the future?
At 20.30 Tate Modern’s Clara Kim, The Daskalopoulos Senior Curator International Art, and Tamsin Hong, Assistant Curator International Art, will read and respond to your letters.
