In less than a hundred years, the percentage of the urban dwelling global population has risen from 25% to over 50%. What does it mean in this day and age to live in a city? This is the question at the heart of the Tate Modern’s exhaustive exhibition ‘Global Cities’, opening on 20th June. The exhibition, arguably the gallery’s most ambitious, will fill the Turbine Hall until August 27th and will chart, through photos, art and architectural drawings, the modern phenomenon of the ‘megacity’.
