New Ruins
An exhibition that explores our impact on the world.
Overview
The Tate's new exhibition, New Ruins, embodies nature in a state of terminal decline. This ephemeral exhibition is the result of a residency at Melbourne’s Seventh Gallery. Enjoy paintings on rescued waste timber, with tonal shifts that are “distinctly unnatural”. New Ruins finds visual expression for anxiety, pertaining to global warming and human impacts on the planet.
With the metaphorical use of storms, clouds of air, dust, smoke and landscapes in various forms of flux and destruction, the exhibition inspires whilst acting as a sobering reminder of our heavy footprints on Earth. Only open this weekend: enjoy it while you can.
