Bringing together art from across Tate’s Collection, this exhibition highlights the connection between environmental and social justice, inviting us to reimagine our relationships with the natural world and each other.
Gathering Ground will feature international contemporary art united by a deep connection to land and community, often addressing the relationship between the ecological crisis and social injustice. It will include recent additions to Tate’s collection by artists including Outi Pieski, Carolina Caycedo and Edgar Calel, as well as a specially-commissioned participatory installation by Abbas Zahedi.
Set in a former oil and coal power station, Gathering Ground offers a shared space to reflect on our role in creating a more equal world. At a critical moment in our history, this powerful exhibition asks: how can we be good Ancestors for future generations?
