Oceans cover more than 70 percent of the Earth's surface, dividing and connecting humans, who carry saltwater in their blood, sweat and tears. At the same time, oceans represent a powerful nonhuman force, rising, flooding, heating, and raging in unprecedented ways as the climate crisis unfolds. The sea has long enthralled artists, who have envisioned it as a sublime wilderness, a home to countless mythical creatures as well as bizarre real spe...

Drawing on the avant-garde movements of both Expressionism and Surrealism, the women of Abstract Expressionism redefined artistic practice as an immersive arena for action, process and consciousness. Their paintings were regarded not as images but as events. Although the movement officially began in mid-century USA, it quickly - through myriad means - spread around the world and became a catalyst for redefining ideas around aesthetics, poetry,...

Zadie Xa (b.1983) is a Korean-Canadian artist whose work investigates issues of belonging and identity, drawing influence from both the fantasy and the lived experience within the Korean diaspora through film and performance, sculptural installation, textiles and painting. Xa's brand new commission for Whitechapel Gallery will be an immersive experience informed by her ongoing engagement with indigenous histories and oral histories of the spir...

In recent years, music videos, celebrity dance contests and TikTok challenges have shaped the way we experience choreography and dance culture. During the Covid-19 pandemic when live performance events were cancelled, people confined to their homes turned to making and viewing short dance videos: created on mobile phones and designed to be easily replicable and shared on social media platforms. Dance has long had a relationship to film and the...

Following a residency in Italy in association with Collezione Maramotti and Max Mara, artist Emma Talbot presents new work inspired by Gustav Klimt, the figure of the aging woman, and a reimaginging of the trials of Hercules, all framed within a network of ideas concerning sustainability and renewal.

The fourth and final selection of works from Norway's Christen Sveaas Art Foundation are selected by American artist Donna Huanca, who uses sculpture, performance, choreography, video and sound in her practice to create unique works exploring the human body and its relationship to space and identity.

Engaging with the question of speculation in ways that encompass the artistic, the economic and the philosophical, with excursions into the literary and the scientific, this collection approaches the theme as a powerful logic of contemporary life, whose key instantiations are art and finance. Both are premised on the power of contingency, temporality, and experiment in the creation (and capitalisation) of possible worlds: artistic autonomy, an...

Following two previous displays at Whitechapel Gallery in 2021 of works selected by artists Ida Ekblad and Paulina Olowska from Norway's Christen Sveaas Art Foundation, the third display will be selected and curated by British artist Hurvin Anderson. Anderson's work touches on his Jamaican heritage, using repeating visual themes that pay homage to this own cultural history to explore identity and memory.

Following the first display at Whitechapel Gallery of works selected by artist Ida Ekblad from Norway's Christen Sveaas Art Foundation, the second display will be selected and curated by artist Pauline Olowska.

Accompanying a major large-scale thematic exhibition at Whitechapel Gallery, this extensive catalogue charts the artists' studio through the last century: as a laboratory or stage set, as place of refuge, or a public space, as a site of resistance or an arena for communal activity. Featuring over 80 artists and collectives from around the world, the catalogue will focus in two sections on 'the public studio' and 'the private studio', accompani...

In her first solo presentation in the UK, Fattal leads us on a journey of transformation. Imagining the large, brick-lined gallery to be a giant kiln, Fattal fills the space with a procession of five characteristic ceramic figures who are embarking on a spiritual and physical metamorphosis, and a series of black and white etchings, drawn from Fattal's memories of Damascus, as a garden paradise, appear as maps or windows for the voyagers. This ...

This collection tracks the astonishing impact of a single vernacular aesthetic category on post-war and contemporary art, and on the vast range of cultural practices and discourses on which contemporary artists draw. As opposed to a material, a mood, a structure, an institution, a motif, or a technique, Cute is concerned with the artistic ramifications of an aesthetic category 'of' or 'about' minorness - or what is generally perceived to be di...
