Tate Modern celebrates independents

Since its millennium opening, Tate Modern has managed to transform the landscape for the contemporary visual arts in Britain. This week it celebrates its 10th anniversary by inviting 70 of the world’s most innovative, independent art spaces to take over the Turbine Hall. No Soul for Sale – a Festival of Independents will see an eclectic mix of art, performance, music and film throughout the weekend. Organised in collaboration with Italian conceptual artist Maurizio Cattelan (most famous for his dead Pope John Paul II struck by lightning), the weekend promises visitors a chance to experience a “pop-up village of global art”.

On Friday 14 and Saturday 15 the gallery will stay open until midnight for late night music performances from acts including Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore, DJ Spooky,  performance artist and purveyor of "artistic porn" Cosey Fanni Tutti and Turner Prize dude and part-time musician Martin Creed and his band. Expect organised mayhem.
