Emily Kam Kngwarray @ Tate Modern

10 July 2025 - 11 January 2026

Renowned Australian artist Emily Kam Kngwarray (1910-1996) created compelling, powerful works that reflect her extraordinary life as a senior Anmatyerre woman from the Utopia region of Australia. Created in collaboration with the National Gallery of Australia (NGA), this will be the first large-scale presentation of Kngwarray’s work ever held in Europe and a celebration of her astonishing career as one of Australia’s greatest artists.

One of the world’s most significant painters to emerge in the late 20th century, her lived experience and spiritual engagement with her homelands was translated into vibrant batiks and later into monumental paintings on canvas. Discover rich textiles, paintings, film and audio elements that embody the majestic scope of Kngwarray’s Country and ancestral heritage.
