Through painting, drawing, photography, sculpture and installation, Hew Locke OBE RA (b. 1959) explores the languages of colonial and post-colonial power, and the symbols through which different cultures assume and assert identity. Fusing historical source material with a keen interest in current affairs, often through the juxtaposition or modification of existing artefacts, Locke focuses attention especially on the UK, the monarchy and his childhood home of the then newly independent Guyana. Locke spent his formative years in Guyana before returning to the UK to complete an MA in sculpture at the Royal College of Art in 1994. Locke's work in the permanent collections of including the Tate, London, UK; the Brooklyn Museum, New York, NY; Pérez Art Museum Miami, FL; and the British Museum, London, UK, among others. His work has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions including Here’s the Thing which opened at Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, UK in 2019 before traveling to the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, Kansas City, MO and the Colby College Museum of Art, Waterville, ME. In March 2022, Locke presented The Procession, his response to the unique architecture and context of the neo-classical Duveen Galleries at the heart of the Tate as part of the annual Tate Britain Commission. Locke unveiled Gilt, the Façade Commission at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in September 2022. Raw Materials, Locke's first solo exhibition with Almine Rech, opened in March 2024. In fall 2025, the Yale Center for British Art will present the largest solo exhibition of Locke's work to date, spanning his career from the late 1990s to the present.

A major new exhibition by the renowned Guyanese-British artist Hew Locke to open at the British Museum in October.
The memorial is planned to be unveiled in east London in summer 2026.
“As well as the past, this memorial also needs to be about the present and the future – and children signify the future."
Whether in Aspen or Arkansas, there’s a bevy of bold new shows to inspire this summer's travel plans.
“The Procession,” a 140-mannequin mob made by the artist Hew Locke in 2022 for the Tate Britain, explodes with color and life.
140 life-size figures make up “The Procession,” British artist Hew Locke’s sprawling, carnival-esque installation commissioned by the Tate Britain in 2022.
In 2018, Locke embellished a photograph of the Columbus statue in New York’s Central Park, bedecking the explorer in pearls and gold filagree.
Meet the artists using traditional materials to weave a modern narrative.
On a mission to right imperial wrongs, “Entangled Pasts, 1768–now: Art, Colonialism and Change” knotted together more than a hundred historical and contemporary works to explore “art and its role in shaping narratives of empire.”
After decades of visiting the British Museum, Locke presents overlooked objects and under-explored histories.
‘Entangled Pasts, 1768–now’ and the exhibition history the RA hopes to be part of
Art fair fatigue is real, but seeing these pieces made trekking through the convention center's maze of booths worthwhile.
Winter is usually a sleepy season for museums across the world. Fall exhibitions remain on view with the hope of luring visitors during the cold months while curators typically prep big retrospectives for the spring. But that will not entirely be the case this time around.
British artist Hew Locke, whose past work has engaged with controversial public statues, weighed in on the new guidelines.
A selection of leading British and British-based artists have begun work on artworks reflecting on the Coronation.
Your list of must-see, fun, insightful, and very New York art events this month, including Hew Locke, Saif Azzuz, Miyoko Ito, Shona McAndrew, and more.
I got another visceral feeling looking at light streaming into British sculptor Hew Locke’s “Jumbie House 2,” a model of an abandoned plantation house featuring staggering detail and precarious engineering.
This year, we’re going big with a list of memorable shows from around the world, seen and loved by our editors and contributors.
To look back on the past 12 months in art-making, below is a survey of some of the most important artworks made or presented in a new light in 2022.
From experiential, multi-site projects to performance-based interventions, these works not only challenge expectations of what public art can look like, but also reflect and confront the legacy of historical injustices.
Locke’s stunning, sensuous spectacle of pattern and color, just like the grand tradition of Caribbean carnivals, hints at sinister elements that undergird the whole endeavor.
As a result of decades of conversation and scholarship, a wave of new public sculptures reflect and honor Black Britons.
His piece is deliberately ambiguous, leaving it open to many different interpretations, all of them intriguing. The overall effect is spectacular.
From Deana Lawson's depictions of urban life to intricate sculptures by Henry Taylor, there's a plethora of work from Black artists to see this season
For a hit of culture, head to these fabulous exhibitions across the capital
Out front, “Gilt,” four sculptures by Hew Locke commissioned for The Met’s historic facade, is on display.
The Guyanese-British artist’s commission for the museum was created in a tense dialogue with collection objects that are connected to conquest.
The commission's title, Gilt, puns on the motivation for art world scrambling to account for centuries of pillaging.
The British-Guyanese artist is the third sculptor to take on the Met's Facade Commission.
The suite of sculptures is inspired by works in the museum’s collection with convoluted histories
Over the entrance to the Met are medallion portraits of white, male art heroes. Enter Hew Locke with a timely and pointed message about “Gilt” (or “Guilt”).
Highlights include grand retrospectives of Alex Katz and Wolfgang Tillmans, a titanic assembly of van Gogh and a celebration of the pioneering Just Above Midtown gallery.
We surveyed museums from New York to Detroit to Los Angeles to get a sense of where equity initiatives stand.
Themed exhibitions exploring the Great Migration and showcasing works by young fashion photographers and metal workers in Memphis are amond the noteworthy shows featuring Black artists that opened in museums this spring and summer.
The factual and fantastical collide, as a Black woman wearing an ebony helmet mask turns her head to gaze at the viewer even as she strides to our left.
In the Hayward Gallery exhibition “In the Black Fantastic,” Nick Cave’s powerful, newly commissioned installation takes center stage. The piece, entitled Chain Reaction, features hundreds of black cast-plaster arms—shaped from the artist’s own—joined together like chains. The hands grip each other as though trying to lift one another up. The installation touches on one of the show’s major themes: the legacy of slavery and colonialism.
The curator of “In the Black Fantastic” at London’s Hayward Gallery describes it as a “feel-good show about death,” which also looks beyond Afrofuturism.
The Commonwealth Games has kickstarted an explosion of culture in England’s second city, with loads to look at and listen to, as well as eat and drink
In the Black Fantastic is a magical, fantastical exhibition featuring 11 contemporary artists from the African diaspora; Nick Cave, Sedrick Chisom, Ellen Gallagher, Hew Locke, Wangechi Mutu, Rashaad Newsome, Chris Ofili, Tabita Rezaire, Cauleen Smith, Lina Iris Viktor and Kara Walker.
From the moment of its inception, the genre has been concerned with the promise and peril of breaking from modernity
The artist, who has wrapped a statue of Victoria in a wooden ship in Birmingham, prefers a retain and explain approach
Guyanese British artist Hew Locke is at a pivotal moment in his thirty-plus year career as a fine artist.
The sculptures of Hew Locke turn the symbols of state power – from coats of arms to naval vessels, public statues and royal portraits – into tools for examining the ways in which societies the world over have fashioned their identities, often under the shadow of colonialism.
Our ‘At home with’ interview series explores what creatives are making, what’s making them tick, and the moments that made them. This time, we step over the threshold with Guyanese-British artist Hew Locke
The artist realized what he previously called an “impossible proposal,” building a ship around a public statue of Queen Victoria, where she’s joined by five smaller replicas of herself.
He has been exploring ships, slavery and statues for decades – and now the world has finally caught up. As Locke unveils the boat he has built in Birmingham, he talks us through his ‘bloody exhausting’ workload

The Procession, installed in the Duveen Galleries, references the museum's historic links to the sugar industry and slavery
There’s a post-colonial, anti-capitalist carnival happening at Tate Britain. And if that doesn’t sound like much fun, that’s because it isn’t. It’s serious.
Ambitious, accomplished and fascinating, this incredible piece features 150 figures in masks and hand-sewn costumes journeying through Tate Britain
New work evokes ideas of pilgrimage, migration, trade, carnival, protest and social celebrations
Tate Britain today unveiled The Procession, a major new installation by artist Hew Locke, the latest in the gallery’s ongoing series of annual commissions. Locke has taken over Tate Britain’s monumental Duveen Galleries with almost 150 life-sized figures – staging a powerful, unsettling and fantastical procession. Intricately hand-made, and bold in its use of colour, this extraordinary installation assembles a myriad of images and materials. It is Locke’s most ambitious project to date, bringing together themes he has explored throughout his career.
Locke’s new work The Procession is a coming together of ideas he’s been exploring for nearly 30 years - and now people are talking about them
As debate over controversial monuments rages on, new project will be part of the Birmingham 2022 Festival culture programme linked to the Commonwealth Games
In the summer of 2019, Hew Locke and Indra Khanna, his wife, were my personal guides through the streets of Brixton. As we meandered the labyrinth of market stalls, we discussed a range of topics: migration, diaspora and community, gentrification, navigating the global art market, and the Caribbean. This outing came on the heels of Hew’s exhibition in Birmingham, England, in which such works as The Tourists (2015) and The Nameless (2010) were exhibited. The Tourists—presented as a haunting video installation—was an intervention that took place aboard the battlecruiser HMS Belfast, and that was commissioned by the Imperial War Museum, London.
Four artists featured in a major London exhibition about Britain and the Caribbean reflect on identity, the art world and living through changing times.
Our pick of the latest gifts and purchases to enter institutional collections worldwide
Guyanese-British sculptor Hew Locke is the latest artist to take on Tate Britain's Duveen Galleries, the huge central aisle of the museum. It's a daunting space, but he's sure to fill it with his signature gold-drenched, super colourful, critical plays on colonial aesthetics.
