À la Tate Modern, la bouleversante renaissance de Tracey Emin

Tracey Emin has returned to the Tate Modern for a major retrospective titled "A Second Life," marking a poignant milestone in her career. The exhibition features over a hundred works, including the iconic and once-scandalous "My Bed," which first catapulted her to international fame during the 1999 Turner Prize.

Do Ho Suh is searching for home in a major new exhibition at Tate Modern

Do Ho Suh's major new exhibition "Walk the House" has opened at Tate Modern's Blavatnik Building, featuring large-scale fabric constructions that recreate architectural fragments from homes the South Korean artist has lived in across Seoul, New York, London, and Berlin. The centerpiece, "Nest/s" (2024), is a monumental sewn passageway made from polyester using a historic Korean fabric technique, incorporating fine details like logos on air vents and light switches. The show also includes "Rubbing/Loving: Seoul Home" (2013-22), a 1:1 paper-and-graphite rubbing of his childhood home, alongside models, drawings, and film that explore memory, migration, and domestic space.

Tate reveals the main reason for its lower attendance figures

Tate museums have experienced a significant drop in attendance, with Tate Modern seeing 25% fewer visitors in 2024 compared to 2019, Tate Britain down 32%, and Tate St Ives down 37%. While domestic visitor numbers have recovered to 95% of pre-Covid levels, international visitors are at only 61%, particularly among European 16-to-24-year-olds, whose numbers fell from 609,000 in 2019-20 to 357,000 in 2023-24. The Art Newspaper's research, combining government data and Tate's internal studies, shows that external socioeconomic factors—including a one-tenth drop in EU visitors to the UK overall—are the primary driver, not curatorial programming as some critics have claimed.
