Exhibition at the Tate Modern, London, 18 October 2017 - 28 January 2018

Russian-born conceptual artists Ilya (1933-) and Emilia (1945-) Kabakov are among the most celebrated artists of their generation. Known for their pioneering large-scale environments and installations, the artists' work fuses the everyday with the conceptual and is characterised by a sense of melancholia and humour.

This exhibition catalogue traces a line from Ilya Kabakov's early paintings, drawings, albums and installations to the projects that the artists have created together since 1987. It Explores the themes of failed utopia and political disillusionment that run through their work, as well as fantasies of escape and transcendence, and the relationship between aesthetics and politics.
