Possibility of Life's Survival on the Planet

Patrick Keiller's The Robinson Institute is unveiled at Tate Britain on 27 March - the first Tate Britain Commission made in response to Tate's Collection of British and international art, supported by Sotheby's. The Robinson Institute is an exhibition that considers the origins of the current economic crisis. Throughout The Robinson Institute, images of landmarks and locations in the English landscape are employed to illustrate the development of capitalism ... There are more than 120 works on display in The Robinson Institute from historical paintings, prints and drawings by Marcus Gheeraerts, J.M.W. Turner and James Ward; and works from the 20th century by Fiona Banner, Joseph Beuys, Andreas Gursky, Richard Hamilton, John Latham, Richard Long, Paul Nash, Eduardo Paolozzi and Andy Warhol. Works of film and literature range from a first edition of Hobbes' Leviathan to Beatrix Potter's The Tale of Little Pig Robinson and the sci-fi film Quatermass 2. The subjects featured in Keiller's photographs include Northumbrian rock art, a close-up of lichen on an Oxford road sign in the direction of Newbury and a Ministry of Defence sign banning photography of the Atomic Weapons Establishment at Aldermaston.--Tate website.
