New Rehang at Tate Britain Will Focus On Women Artists

When the Tate Britain unveils the rehanging of its galleries on May 23, women artists from the 17th century to the present will be more prominently featured, the museum announced earlier this week.

The new displays from national collection of British art will showcase over 800 work by more than 350 artists, including favorites, recent discoveries, and new commissions, including several large-scale contemporary installations. Notably, half the contemporary artists on display will be women, including Bridget Riley, Tracey Emin, Kudzanai-Violet Hwami and Lydia Ourahmane.

The museum’s statement on the rehang said its “longstanding commitment to diversifying its collection means the gallery can also showcase great women artists from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, including many who have never been shown at Tate before.”

Recent acquisitions of female artists that will be newly on display at Tate Britain include a full-length portrait by Joan Carlile, believed to be the first woman in Britain to work as a professional oil painter. The museum acquired the work in 2016. In 2021, Tate also acquired 29 watercolors by Emily Sargent, the sister of the much better-known John Singer Sargent, made on her travels in North Africa. The paintings are part of a much larger collection of 440 discovered in a trunk by a family member in 1998.

“Tate Britain’s new displays will embody our commitment to expanding the canon and diversifying British art history,” Polly Staple, the museum’s director of collection, British art, said in a statement. “In recent years we have brought so many incredible works into Tate’s collection and visitors will soon be able to see these new acquisitions hung alongside more familiar and much-loved classics.”

Iconic $42 K. Jeff Koons ‘Balloon Dog’ Sculpture Accidentally Smashed by Art Collector in Miami

A “Balloon Dog” sculpture by artist Jeff Koons was accidentally knocked over by an art collector and shattered on the floor of a Miami gallery Thursday evening. Luckily, for the collector, the cost of the piece was covered by insurance.

The two-decade-old piece was blue porcelain and stood at roughly 15 inches tall. The work was on display as part of the contemporary art fair Art Wynwood, according to a report by the Miami Herald Friday.

“When this thing fell to the ground, it was like how a car accident draws a huge crowd on the highway,” Stephen Gamson, a Wynwood–based artist and art collector, told the Herald.

Attendees were left wondering if this was an accident or possibly part of a performance piece.

Koons speculated that the woman may have let curiosity get the best of her. She has, however, been identified as an art collector.
