“Tate Modern opens an exhibition dedicated to the visionary work of Julio Le Parc (1928-2026). Organised in close collaboration with the artist and his Atelier, the exhibition features over 60 works spanning Le Parc’s extraordinary 70-year career, including interactive installations, striking light sculptures, and geometric abstract paintings. Arranged in a winding, maze-like manner, the exhibition follows Le Parc’s career-long mission to activate the viewer, using optical effects, sensory experiences and physical interactions to make audiences aware of the role they can play in bringing art to life.”—Tate Modern

Julio Le Parc was born in Argentina and studied at the Escuela de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires. He moved to France in 1958 and joined the vibrant Parisian creative scene of the 1960s.
