"This is a very special year for Tate Modern. We first opened our doors in May 2000, marking this year as our 25th anniversary.

Tate Modern has made a huge impact in that time. It has expanded the story of modern art to be one that is truly international, and it has made contemporary art accessible to all. Today we are proud to be the most popular museum of modern and contemporary art in the world.

This page highlights artworks on show around the building. They include old friends and newest arrivals. Together they represent Tate Modern at its best: innovative, surprising, and inspiring."

Karin Hindsbo, Director of Tate Modern
