Hayward Gallery Touring’s major group exhibition (9 March–26 May 2024) explores lived experience of motherhood through over 100 artworks.
★★★★★ Reviewing the exhibition in The Observer, Laura Cumming writes, ‘Acts of Creation is riveting from first to last, an exceptional (and touring) anthology of contemporary artworks to startle, move and awe, all one hundred and more plunging deep into motherhood.’
