Abraham Cruzvillegas will be among the guests in conversation at Tate Modern for a special Artist Talk celebrating ten years of the Hyundai Commission. Wednesday 25 March 2026, 6.30pm.

Cruzvillegas received the inaugural Hyundai Commission for Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, for which he created Empty Lot (2015): a vast geometric sculpture created using scaffolding, a grid of triangular wooden planters, and soil collected from parks across London, that were lit by lamps and watered throughout the six month display.

For the event, marking this milestone anniversary of the commission, Cruzvillegas will join artist Anicka Yi (Hyundai Commission artist, 2021); Catherine Wood, Interim Director of Tate Modern; Chris Dercon, Director of Tate Modern (2011–2016); Helen O'Malley, Tate Modern Curator of International Art; and Mark Godfrey, Tate Modern Senior Curator (2007–2021).
