As part of the Frieze London VIP Programme, renowned visual activist Zanele Muholi will be in conversation with curators Fatoş Üstek (Frieze Sculpture) and Carine Harmand (Tate Liverpool) for a panel discussion held at the Tate Modern on 8 October 2024.
Titled ‘Art in Focus: Zanele Muholi at Tate Modern and Frieze Sculpture’, the discussion will explore Muholi’s approach to building visibility for queer communities through their current transformative solo exhibition at Tate Modern, their significant contribution to Frieze Sculpture and their current focus – a reigniting of their iconic Faces and Phases series documenting LGBTQIA+ people in London, LA and elsewhere.
The event marks the first time the artist will speak about this new portrait project in progress and their plans to insert the final images into the Tate show. Additionally, the panel will offer insights into Muholi’s participation at Frieze Sculpture and the broader impact of their work in redefining representation within these iconic cultural platforms.
Free entrance with Frieze VIP pass, Tate membership or by RSVPing to [email protected]
