Ahead of the major Robert Rauschenberg retrospective at Tate Modern, writer and poet Vincent Katz explores the pioneering artist’s lifelong spirit of collaboration.
In anticipation of British surrealist Paul Nash’s forthcoming exhibition at Tate Britain, Marc Camille Chaimowicz, Inga Fraser, Michael Bracewell and Alice Channer discuss the lesser-known sides to the artist’s work, covering his ground-breaking multidisciplinary practice across art, design and photography.
To coincide with The EY Exhibition: Wifredo Lam at Tate Modern, the artist’s son Eskil Lam recounts his childhood memories of visiting his father in the Italian coastal town of Albissola Marina, where the exchange of ideas with fellow artists including Asger Jorn, Enrico Baj and Lucio Fontana led to great experimentation in his art.
