In conversation with Tino Sehgal

Renowned artist Tino Sehgal (B. 1976) brings his critically acclaimed work, yet untitled, 2013 to Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki this October for a very limited time. Yet untitled was first presented in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013, where Sehgal received the Golden Lion Award for best artist. It was acquired by the Gallery in 2020 and is the first choreographic work to enter the Gallery’s collection.

Sehgal’s artwork consists of live interaction between ‘participants’ enacting the work, which he describes as ‘constructed situations’. His work is not recorded, so the only way to view it, is to see it in person. This ensures his art and practice is observed in real time.

Berlin based Sehgal is committed to a sustainable planet and has not travelled by air for two decades. So please don’t miss this opportunity to experience the work, followed by a live-streamed talk with the artist and Natasha Conland, Senior Curator of Contemporary Art.

Yet untitled is proudly presented in association with Dame Jenny Gibbs and Auckland Contemporary Art Trust.
