Soapbox: How does the body move me?

8 June 2016 at 12.00–14.00

Free for Members

Following on from the last Soapbox discussion ‘Here is the art, where is the feeling?’ We visit both the collection and the current Duveens Commission, artist Pablo Bronstein’s Historical Dances in an Antique Setting to look at gesture, pose and the body in motion and ask what responses do these artwork provoke?

This session is part of an ongoing series. The subject for the next session is up to you to decide! 

What is soapbox?

Soapbox at Tate Britain is an opportunity for people near or beyond the age of 60 to meet, to air opinions and share discussions on life and art.

Soapbox explores links between social issues that are important to you and the work of artists from our collection that are on display at Tate Britain. Soapbox will challenge your thinking and offer you the chance to say what you feel in a supportive and friendly group.
