Every year from 2000,Tate Modern has invited an artist to create a sitespecific work for this space. Nauman used directional speakers to create a sequence of listening experiences, with quiet zones in between. Raw Materials included sound from works across Nauman’s career, acting as a sort of aural retrospective. When the work was acquired by Tate in 2006 , Nauman agreed that a further configuration could be realised on the stairwell within the Natalie Bell building. The work has been installed here for the first time as part of Nauman’s 2020 exhibition.
