Tate Modern

With a new essay, and freshly re-edited by Matthew Gale, Head of Displays at Tate Modern, and including a revised essay by Nicholas Serota, Tate Modern: The Handbook is an ideal introduction to both the world's most popular museum and the art of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
The handbook as been reissued to coincide with the opening of the new art spaces previously occupied by the oil tanks below Tate Modern, an expansion which is part of the London 2012 Festival and culmination of the Cultural Olympiad. The spaces will be dedicated to showing live art, performance, installation and film works. Extensively illustrated with all the best-known and loved works from the Tate Collection, the handbook also includes a foreword by Chris Dercon, Director of Tate Modern, and essays by broadcaster Andrew Marr, Frances Morris (Head of Collections, Tate Modern), and artist Michael Craig-Martin.
