Tate Britain’s Lee Miller exhibition seeks to go beyond her mythology

Tate Britain is opening a major survey of American photographer Lee Miller (1907-77), running from 2 October 2025 to 15 February 2026. Curated by Hilary Floe, the exhibition aims to refocus attention on Miller’s artistic output rather than her storied personal life—her roles as a Surrealist, fashion photographer, war correspondent, and muse to figures like Man Ray, Pablo Picasso, and Jean Cocteau. The show presents the UK’s largest survey of her work, deliberately selecting images based on artistic merit rather than biographical illustration.

Steamy scenes in urban underworlds were Edward Burra’s great subject—now they're coming to Tate Britain

Tate Britain is staging a major retrospective of Edward Burra (1905-76), the English painter known for his vivid depictions of urban underworlds, jazz clubs, and later brooding landscapes. The exhibition, curated by Thomas Kennedy, features over 80 paintings and newly discovered archival material spanning Burra's career from the 1920s to the 1970s, including rarities like 'Cornish Clay Mines' (1970) from a private collection. It also draws on Burra's extensive correspondence—described by his biographer Jane Stevenson as 'grubby letters'—which offers unprecedented insight into his personal world and chronic pain from rheumatoid arthritis and anemia.
