Jackboot Subtlety
The horseshoe in a boxing glove obviousness of the Tate Britain 2.0 omits the following lineages from its modern and thus less than contemporary purview:
Ecology
Nonhumans
Things
As a result, the following and more are nowhere or stuffed in corners:
Bridget Riley
David Hockney
(Even) Francis Bacon
Ian Hamilton Finlay
Vanessa Bell
Richard Long
James McNeil Whistler
John Sell Cotman
John Everett Millais
William Blake
...
Dude who stole my Tate?
My Tate got me to environmental philosophy, OOO, thing theory, Romanticism. Some of the things that will eject us from modernity with its complicated wheels, as Blake would say.
That Tate is now a relic of the 70s, consigned to the dustbin of history as is the old ecology exhibit at the Natural History Museum, whose refit is now also sponsored by--BP.
It's sad that the 1970s is now in the future.
