The Unilever Series: Tino Sehgal
Opens: 24/07/2012 Closes: 28/10/2012
Tate Modern, London

Drawing on a background in dance and economics, Sehgal directs participants to mingle with visitors, engaging them with routine anecdotes and economic debate.

The Independent“Dazzlingly powerful, moving, and full of potential...” Sehgal’s artistic materials are time and attention - moments of choreographed togetherness with people, and what luxurious materials these are...

Guardian“One of the best Turbine Hall commissions...” It is about communality and intimacy, the self as social being, the group and the individual, belonging and separation. We're in the middle of things. It is marvellous...
