In December 2017, artist and filmmaker Steve McQueen made an artwork in response to the fire that took place earlier that year on 14 June at Grenfell Tower in North Kensington, West London. 72 people died in the tragedy. Filming the tower before it was covered with hoarding, McQueen sought to create a record.
See Steve McQueen’s film installation Grenfell at the Bluecoat from 16 May - 21 June. Screenings of the film will take place at set times. Entry is free but you will need to book a free timed ticket via the Bluecoat's website.
This national tour is being coordinated by Tate in collaboration with the partner venues and is made possible thanks to support using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and from Art Fund.
Grenfell in Liverpool is a co-production by Tate Liverpool and the Bluecoat.
