LONDON.- Tate Britain today unveils its new Duveens
Commission, Harrier and Jaguar, by Fiona Banner. Banner’s largest work
to date,
Harrier and Jaguar brings the highly-charged physicality of two real
fighter
jets, both previously in active military service, into the unexpected
setting of
the neoclassical Duveen Galleries. Harrier and Jaguar has been specially
devised
for the Tate Britain Duveens Commission 2010, supported by Sotheby’s.
Harrier
and Jaguar is curated by Tate Britain Curator Lizzie Carey-Thomas in
collaboration with the artist.
