The first UK museum presentation of Aleksandra Kasuba’s work: her exhibition Shelters for Senses open at Tate St Ives

Tate St Ives has opened 'Shelters for the Senses', the first UK museum presentation of Lithuanian-American artist Aleksandra Kasuba (1923–2019). Curated by Tate St Ives Director Anne Barlow in collaboration with LNMA curator Elona Lubytė, the exhibition spans seven decades of Kasuba's work, including early paintings, mosaics, public artworks, architectural designs, and spatial environments. A reconstruction of her 'Live-In Environment' (1971) is featured, alongside works donated to Lithuania and kept by the LNMA. The show runs until 4 October.
