Mira Schendel: Preview at Tate Modern

Mira Schendel (1919-1988) was one of Latin America’s most important and prolific post-war artists. With her contemporaries Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica, Schendel reinvented the language of European

\nModernism in Brazil. Tate Modern will stage the first ever international full-scale survey of her work. The exhibition will reveal Schendel’s dialogues with a diverse range of artists, philosophers and critics, as well as her engagement with universal ideas of faith, self-understanding and existence. It will bring together over 250 paintings, prints and sculptures from across her entire career, including works which have never been exhibited before.
