| | Tate Modern - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Tate Modern is Britain's national museum of modern art in London and, with Tate Britain, Tate Liverpool and Tate St. Ives, a part of the Tate Gallery. | | | This was ostensibly because a chronological survey of the story of modern art along the lines of the Museum of Modern Art in New York would expose the large gaps in the collections, the result of the Tate's conservative acquisitions policy for the first half of the 20th century. | | | The first rehang at Tate Modern, completed in 2006, has eschewed the thematic groupings and, despite showing up the lack of comprehensiveness in the collection, has been met with critical success. |

| | The Violence of Allen Tate by David Yezzi |
| | Tate, born in 1899, came to modernist poetry quite young, first through the work of Arthur Symons and the French Symbolists, then through the poetry of T. Eliot. | | | Despite Tate’s bellwether editorship of The Sewanee Review, a Bollingen Prize, a National Medal for Literature, a stint as consultant in poetry at the Library of Congress (now the Poet Laureateship), and presidency of the National Institute of Arts and Letters, few of his achievements figure in standard accounts of modern poetry. | | | Certain journals to which Tate sent work rejected his poems for their youthful ventriloquism of the older poet. |

| | 21 Publishing - Nat Tate |
| | Nat Tate moved uptown with Janet Felzer when she opened her new gallery, and in the 1954 exhibition he had one large solitary canvas called White Building. | | | Janet Felzer possessed an eclectic and modern taste which governed her choice of artists, but she most favoured those with some overt intellectual heft (Jackson Pollock left her 'cold as a glacier', she said). | | | Indeed, while Tate was notionally a member of the 'New York School' and at the end of his life what might be termed an Abstract Expressionist, his pictures are always sidelined, or differentiated, by their idiosyncracies. |

| | LONDON LOST AND FOUND I art : features |
| | The Tate Modern is more likely to be an idea about art at a certain moment, or a certain time, or a certain theme in art. | | | At the Tate Britain, the idea of the collection displays is to try to explore the relationships between art and Britishness as part of the need to rationalise isolating the art of a country. | | | Chris Stevens: I think it started with Sir Henry Tate of Tate and Lyle, who was a great collector of what was then contemporary British art, late Victorian painting and sculpture, and I think he saw a sort of intuitive resistance to contemporary art. |
