Designer Wayne Hemingway & Son will radically transform one half of Tate Liverpool’s second floor gallery. Designed to counteract the perception of galleries as stuffy, formal spaces, Hemingway & Son will juxtapose figurative sculpture with an interactive disco environment. 25 life-size sculptures, from the late 19th century to the present day, will tell the story of the human body as represented through sculpture. These works will be presented in an innovative and exciting way: a light-up dancefloor will occupy the centre of the space and visitors will be invited to take part in a silent disco. To provide an alternative gallery experience visitors can pick up wireless headphones and listen to specially-selected tracklists. Hemingway & Son experiment with innovative and quirky ways to present the artworks – ambient lighting, mirror balls, specially created plinths and a dancefloor designed by Kathrine Sandys (Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts). Highlights include Edgar Degas’ Little Dancer Aged Fourteen (1880-1), Germaine Richier’s Shepherd of the Landes (1951, cast 1996), Antony Gormley’s Three Ways: Mould, Hole and Passage (1981), and Ron Mueck’s Ghost (1998).
