The discussion will be chaired by lecturer and writer Nina Trivedi. Speakers include a range of Tate staff working on different aspects of the Lynette Yiadom-Boakye exhibition.

  • Mikei Hall, Senior Art Handling Technician
  • Idrissa Kargbo, Leading Officer, Security
  • Gabriella Macaro, Paintings Conservator
