Tate Modern museum in London announced its slate of 2027 exhibitions, including an opera-inspired installation by David Hockney in the revered Turbine Hall marking the artist's 90th birthday, Algerian artist Baya's debut U.K. solo show, and the first-ever exhibition devoted entirely to French impressionist Claude Monet since the Tate Modern opened 26 years ago.
The gallery has been on a solid run in recent months, with a well-received edition of its annual from young British artist and video game designer Serpentine Pavilion designed by Bangladeshi artist and architect Marina Tabassum, and two buzzy autumn shows in the first major solo exhibition Danielle Brathwaite Shirley and the latest show from Peter Doig - famed for being the most expensive living artist in Europe - inspired by sound system culture.
"The same institution that values tradition above almost everything else has quietly acknowledged that artistic merit isn't about the tools you use - it's about what you create with them."
