- Global warming means more icebergs are being produced & sea levels are rising. Olafur Eliasson & Minik Rosing have installed #IceWatchLondon — 24 blocks of ice, melting outside Tate Modern. The duo hope more people will face the reality of climate change: bit.ly/2LbImX8
- 'Believe there is a great power silently working for all things good, behave yourself and never mind the rest.' - #BeatrixPotter, born #OnThisDay in 1866. bit.ly/38wEcVY This watercolour is from #TheTailorOfGloucester 🐭 Do you have a favourite story by Beatrix Potter?
- We are deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Our thoughts are with the Royal Family at this time.
- On 14 June 2017, artist Khadija Saye was killed in the fire at Grenfell Tower, aged 24. Saye's work in Tate's collection calls into question the rituals or objects that we turn to for solace in life’s most challenging moments. 🖤 She is greatly missed. bit.ly/3gmtyX9
- A luminous start for August 🌙 ✨ In #JamesWhistler's moonlit scenes, known as 'Nocturnes', the artist aimed to capture the beauty and tranquillity of the Thames by night. You can enjoy both artworks on free display at Tate Britain. 🏛️
- We love French painter and illustrator Norbert Goeneutte’s (1854-1894) snowy scene of the boulevard de Clichy in Paris. Painted at just 22, this was one of many paintings and etchings he made of the buildings and people on its busy streets. 🌨️ bit.ly/3Wg3sHQ
- And the winner is…Lubaina Himid!Congratulations to this year’s #TurnerPrize winner! Lubaina Himid, A Fashionable Marriage 1987
- J.M.W. Turner painted the sea and the sky more than anything else in his lifetime. He was always looking up, so much so that in his paintings it sometimes seems that our planet is but a platform from which to see the sky. 💙 J.M.W. Turner, Sea and Sky, English Coast 1832 ☁️
- We're immensely saddened to hear that Dame #PaulaRego has died. Her magical, powerful, visceral paintings told stories that changed the way we see the world. This painting, featuring her son & husband, she proposed as 'a dance of life'—of which Rego's was extraordinary. 💙
- 'Colour is a power which directly influences the soul' - Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, born #onthisday in 1866: bit.ly/3lDCvgH 🟠🔺🟦
- Chila Kumari Singh Burman's wintry work has transformed Tate Britain with neon light & swirling colour, in time for #Diwali2020! ✨🦚👁️🍦🎉 A celebration of new beginnings, 'remembering a brave new world' offers us hope for a brighter future. bit.ly/32H2z0W 💜
