Bodyspacemotionthings by Robert Morris






This was the second time to hold Robert's work, Bodyspacemotionthings, in Tate Modern started in 22 May 2009. It was really an interesting exhibition i think, but i lost the chance to see in person. He used different kind of body language to present this work. When audience got into the show to play with every work, they can enjoy and have fun with those works. it is kind of interactive exhibition through people movement. You can see different actions and position because of different people.


Climb, balance, crawl and roll on the interactive installation Bodymotionspacesthings by artist Robert Morris, as this series of huge props including beams, weights, platforms, rollers, tunnels and ramps built from materials such as plywood, stone, steel plate, and rope transforms the Turbine Hall.

This is a re-creation of Tate Gallery’s first fully interactive exhibition which took place in 1971, inspiring a huge media and public interest, when an art gallery asked people for the first time to physically interact with an art work. Shockingly, it was closed just four days after opening, due to the unexpected and over enthusiastic response of the audience. This time around, it will be created using contemporary materials based upon the original plans, in collaboration with Morris, enabling you to experience an exciting landmark in Tate's history.
