Lebanese-born, Paris-based artist and composer Tarek Atoui turns Tate Modern's Turbine Hall into a vast responsive instrument with 'Hold', the eleventh Hyundai Commission, which opens to the public on October 13, 2026 and runs through April 11, 2027, with free entry. The installation is described by The Art Newspaper as the most sound-focused work for the space since Bruce Nauman's Raw Materials in 2004. Built with architecture practice Arthur Mamou-Mani, the work centers on clusters of 3D-printed horns produced from a composite of sugar resin and bamboo dust, hung on wires alongside drum skins, panpipes and unappealing-looking vents. Textiles supplied by ISSEY MIYAKE women's designer Satoshi Kondo do more than hang: coated in conductive paint, they carry a low current to a synthesiser and, as they stir in the hall's air, generate shifting bass tones. Hidden microphones gather sound from both the instruments and the ordinary movement of visitors, while custom software samples and feeds those sounds back into a composition that never repeats itself exactly. Throughout the six-month run, visiting musicians from London and beyond will regularly perform inside the installation, plugging into Atoui's evolving orchestra and continually altering it. Atoui says the piece grew from his memories of spaces built for gathering — shaded courtyards, vine-covered canopies — and is meant to make the monumental industrial hall feel intimate: a place to sit, listen and spend time. Where recent Turbine Hall commissions offered a single spectacular object, 'Hold' fills the volume with something harder to contain: sound, air and movement.
