One of the most iconic art institutions on earth, The Tate Modern, will be spotlighting emerging artists throughout London via an initiative dubbed 'Tate Collective’s young artist billboards.' Recently, young talent between the ages of 16-25 were invited to submit up to seven pieces of artwork to be considered.
Soon, The Tate Modern will be showcasing the works of these young artists on billboards across the city, offering exposure while helping to make art more accessible to the masses. In addition to helping emerging talent, this initiative is bringing art to the streets at a time when many museums and galleries are closed, and have been for months.
Tate Collective’s young artist billboards will begin to pop up around London on August 10th.
