About
(The event will be livestreamed from midday GMT Saturday 16 May 2015 on this page)
Starting from the question: If Tate Modern was Musée de la danse? This project proposes a transformation of the art museum via the lens of dance.
For two days only, in collaboration with dancer and choreographer Boris Charmatz, around 90 dancers and choreographers will take over the gallery spaces and the iconic Turbine Hall.
See key works by Charmatz and his collaborators, get involved in a debate about what a dance museum could be and join in as contemporary dancers turn the Turbine Hall into a dance floor for everyone.
As Tate Modern becomes Musée de la danse temporarily, the project conjures a vision of how art might be presented and encountered differently in the future museum.
