Tate Modern’s (more-or-less) monthly Friday Lates series continues this month with an evening curated by this year’s Infinities Commission recipient, Zimbabwean choreographer, film-maker and installation artist Nora Chipaumire.
Centred around ‘gadzi’, Chipaumire’s monumental commission in the East Tank the evening, and will feature the first of three one-hour performances staged by the artist throughout this weekend.Starting in the installation and progressing through the Tanks Lobby and into the Turbine Hall, the performance incorporates the installation’s impressive sound system, plus live musicians and a troupe of thirteen dancers.
Aftet the performance, there’ll be plenty more music throughout the galleries, with sets from Rhythm Section’s Bradley Zero in the Turbine Hall, and Future Nostalgia’s Atiyyah Khan in the Corner Bar.
Visitors can also take part in a communal textile-making workshop, watch a selection of Chipaumire’s previous film work in the Starr Cinema, and join Tate curators for LGBTIA+ tours and ten-minute talks throughout the galleries.
