5. A Treat from the Tate
Tate Britain dedicates its autumn exhibition to acclaimed sculptor Rachel Whiteread. The first woman to win the Turner Prize in 1993, Whiteread subverts perspective with her casts of negative space and everyday objects. While her life-sized cast of a condemned terraced house was controversially demolished in 1994, this exhibition presents celebrated works including ‘Untitled (100 Spaces), 1995 and ‘Untitled (Stairs), 2001 alongside a selection of new projects. The exhibition runs from 12 September – 21 January 2018 and The Modern House have teamed up with Tate Britain to offer one of our subscribers two complimentary tickets.
