Description

Tate Modern unveils a transformative plan for its Turbine Hall, set to host an immersive opera space designed by David Hockney, celebrating his ninetieth birthday in 2027. Hockney, known for his landscapes and portraits, ventured into opera design in the 1970s, creating eleven sets, including a pop-art style one for a Strauss opera. The 2027 lineup also includes a retrospective for Sonia Boyce, a show on Edvard Munch, and a first for Claude Monet, exploring his pursuit of capturing fleeting moments. Tate Liverpool and Britain mark significant anniversaries, while Tate Modern adds spotlights on Algerian artist Baya, Indias Nalini Malani, and American sculptor Lynda Benglis. Maria Balshaw steps down as Tates director, with Karin Hindsbo taking over temporarily, praising the diverse and inspiring program.
