Magdalena Abakanowicz: Every Tangle of Thread and Rope
November 17, 2022 – May 21, 2023
This exhibition presents a rare opportunity to explore Abakanowicz’s series of radical woven sculptures that pioneered a new form of installation art. Many of the most significant Abakans will be brought together in a forest-like display in the 64-metre-long gallery space of the Blavatnik Building at Tate Modern. A selection of early textile pieces and her little-known drawings are also on show. The exhibition explores this transformative period of Abakanowicz’s practice when her woven forms came off the wall and into three-dimensional space.
