Tate Modern presents 'Gathering Ground', an exhibition uniting international contemporary art from Tate's collection to explore the intersection of environmental and social justice. Set in the former oil and coal power station, the show features recent acquisitions by Outi Pieski, Carolina Caycedo, and Edgar Calel, alongside a participatory installation commissioned from Abbas Zahedi. The exhibition invites visitors to reflect on humanity's role in creating a more equitable world and asks how we can be good ancestors for future generations. It runs at Tate Modern in 2025.
