New online performance by Faustin Linyekula released on Tate´s Channels

While Tate galleries remain closed, visitors can still experience great art on Tate's website and social media.

Now online for free and re-invented due to the current situation, My Body, My Archive is an exclusive online-only performance by Faustin Linyekula which combines carefully selected segments of his works Sur les traces de Dinozord 2006, Statue of Loss 2014, Batanaba 2017 and Congo 2019.

The Congolese choreographer and dance artist was due to perform in the Tanks at Tate Modern from 20 to 29 March 2020. His work was among those programmed for this year's BMW Tate Live Exhibition: Our Bodies, Our Archives, alongside other performances by Okwui Okpokwasili and Tanya Lukin Linklater. These were cancelled when Tate's four sites closed due to the coronavirus, but Linyekula and those of his collaborators who could make it to London worked with Tate to stage a one-off, site-specific work, performed to camera in the empty Tanks.
