This tour will be given in British Sign Language and is exclusively for D/deaf sign language users.  The exhibition presents many of Ana Mendieta’s iconic works alongside newly remastered films, early paintings, and late sculptural pieces, many of which have never been seen in the UK before. Active in the 1970s and early 80s, the Cuban-born American artist posed profound questions throughout her work around displacement and identity, which remain highly relevant today.

Free – booking required. Please arrive from 2:45pm for the tour at 3pm. The tour lasts one hour and takes place in the Blavatnik Building, Level 2, at Tate Modern.
