This summer 2024, the Grimaldi Forum Monaco, in collaboration with Tate, unveils the exhibition-event 'Turner's Sublime Legacy'.

This exhibition, featuring an ensemble of first-rate works in a new scenography of over 2,000 square meters, is an invitation to a journey through Joseph Mallord William Turner’s representations of the world in a sublime mode, from his landscapes to the elementary explorations of light and atmosphere of which he was a pioneer and master. 

Turner’s decisive influence on painting and by extension on the representation of the Sublime in art,  will be portrayed throughout the exhibition in dialogue with around thirty works by leading modern and contemporary artists including John Akomfrah, Olafur Eliasson, Richard Long, Cornelia Parker, Katie Paterson, Mark Rothko and Jessica Warboys..

The exhibition is curated by Elizabeth Brooke, Senior Project Curator at Tate.

This exhibition is organized in collaboration with Tate, with the support of CMB Monaco, SOTHEBY’S and GROUPE MARZOCCO.
