THEASTER GATES: AMALGAM
TATE LIVERPOOL 13 DECEMBER TO 3 MAY
This first major UK exhibition dedicated to Theaster Gates sees the American artist exploring race and inequality in his home country by examining the history of Malaga, a small island off the coast of Maine, through sculpture, installations, and film. A new film, Dance of Malaga, sees choreographer Kyle Abrahams direct dancers to the tunes of blues and gospel music played by Gates’ musical collective, The Black Monks. tate.org.uk
