• Afro Modern: Journeys through the Black Atlantic
Until 25th April 2010

Tel: 0151 702 7400, www.tate.org.uk/liverpool
This major exhibition, inspired by Paul Gilroy’s book The Black Atlantic: Modernity and Double Consciousness (1993), is the first to trace in depth the impact of Black Atlantic culture on Modernism and reveals how black artists and intellectuals have played a central role in the formation of Modernism from the early twentieth century to today.
