About
A lecture titled "What Are Collections Good For? Adventures and Experiments in the 21st Century", followed by a Q&A and light refreshments. Curator and writer Iwona Blazwick, formerly Director of Whitechapel Gallery and Head of Exhibitions and Displays at Tate Modern, looks at how collections have been shown over the past two decades. Drawing on four roles a collection display can play — theatre, mirror, travel agent, and work of art — she asks what the choices say about the institutions behind them and what happens when works are freed from chronology. The event takes place in Gallery 3 and is fully accessible, with booking required due to limited capacity.
