Folclore y Leyendas Latinoamericanas en el Arte Contemporáneo - Sunday 23rd February 2025 at 11am

Embark on a captivating journey through the heart of Latin American culture at Tate Modern.

Our exclusive tour will delve into the vibrant world of folklore and legends, as expressed by contemporary artists. Discover how these ancient stories and traditions continue to inspire and shape the visual arts. From mystical depictions of indigenous deities to reimagined narratives of folklore heroes, you'll witness the power of art to preserve and reinterpret cultural heritage.

This is a welcoming, fun, and friendly discussion-based tour in which you will put your Spanish into gear. In a mix between a Spanish class and a guided art visit in Spanish, you will not only learn about art, but you will also be encouraged to be critical and express your own opinions. Absolutely no knowledge of art is required, just an inquisitive mind and an interest to learn and exchange views.

The visit will be conducted in Spanish by art historian, gallery educator, and Spanish language teacher at Spanish House London.

The language will be tailored for students with at least an A2 level of Spanish (equivalent to Spanish House London Continuacion courses and above). You will be provided with a vocabulary list in advance, so that you can familiarise yourself with the words we will use in the tour. Please let us know your level of Spanish when booking your place. Spaces are limited, please book in advance.

We will meet on Sunday 23rd February 2025 at 11am outside the Schools Welcome Room on the Ground Floor of Tate Modern (Bankside, SE1 9TG). Look for the Spanish House London logo. If you have any troubles finding us, please contact us on 07775 583 740. The tour will last approximately 2 hours.
