The Tate Modern has a huge room filled with what seems to be detritus left over from mounting art - ladders, glue, tape, and so on. Your first reaction is that they are switching out an exhibition.
It’s only when you read the placard that you find out that each item had been painstakingly carved out of something like resin and painted over a span of years.
Nearby is an empty room, where they actually are switching out an exhibition.
- thrwyoilarticle 5y agoSo you visited the Tate Modern and, out of all the pieces, the one you recall an anecdote about was the obnoxious detritus? Seems like it did the job.
- lelandfe 5y agoI actually quite liked that piece :)
