From 1960 to the Present
Tate Britain announced a new display dedicated to women artists working in Britain over the past 60 years which will open in April 2019. Around 60 works, by artists such as Mona Hatoum, Sarah Lucas and Bridget Riley, will be brought together for the first time. Sixty Years is a curated display from Tate’s collection as part of Tate’s ongoing commitment to increasing the representation of women across its galleries.
Sixty Years will tell the story of British art from 1960 to the present day, celebrating its diversity and embracing key movements and debates through women artists. The display will feature a vibrant selection of intergenerational artists working in painting, photography, sculpture, drawing and film, from Mary Martin to Anthea Hamilton, and include many recent acquisitions.
