Hermes 'H Box' @ Tate Modern




Currently on exhibition at the Tate Modern is the ‘H Box’, created by French Luxury fashion house Hermes together with Portugese Artist/ Architect Didier Fiuza Faustino. The ‘H Box’ is a mobile screening room that showcases the work of 8 video artists (Alice Anderson, Yael Bartana, Sebastián Díaz-Morales, Dora García, Judit Kúrtag, Valérie Mréjen, Shahryar Nashat, and Su-Mei Tse.)



Designed to hold up to 10 people at a time, the 'H Box' consists of two entirely collapsible modules constructed of aluminum and Perspex, it can be assembled, disassembled and transported as required, and functions as a portable video gallery to travel around the world, while also seen as a piece of art on its own.
