Hack The Space @ Tate Modern

ABOUT THE SPACE

The Space is a free website for artists and audiences to create and explore brilliant
new art, commissioned by us and shared around the Whole Wide World.
We commission new talent and great artists from all art forms, creative industries,
technical and digital backgrounds, through regular Open Calls and partnerships.
With around 50 new commissions a year, The Space is one of the most exciting
places on the internet to find new art, free for audiences and artists to explore,
express and enjoy.

The Space never closes its doors to anybody. It is a constant growing art collection
that changes with every visit. Every Friday lunchtime is the launch of a new
collaboration.

Set up by the BBC and the Arts Council of England, The Space is a free public
space, a not-for-profit public service for artists and audiences around the world.
