About the Video
“Intergenerational love is what will change the world.” —Cecilia Vicuña
Fundamental to Cecilia Vicuña’s Hyundai Commission: Brain Forest Quipu is the transmission of knowledge across generations. From the experienced museum visitor to children seeing art for the first time, Vicuña’s installation has something to teach us all.

About the Program
The annual Hyundai Commission is a series of new, site-specific installations by international artists in Tate Modern’s iconic Turbine Hall. It is made possible by the long-term partnership between Tate and Hyundai Motor, now confirmed until 2036. The partnership, recently extended for another decade, was founded in 2014 with the longest initial commitment from a corporate partner in Tate’s history and encompasses support of both the Hyundai Commission and the Hyundai Tate Research Centre: Transnational. Attracting over 19 million visitors since it began, the Hyundai Commission gives artists the chance to interpret the vast industrial space of Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, producing some of the most bold and memorable artworks of the past decade.
