Liberate Tate is an art collective exploring the role of creative intervention in social change.
Liberate Tate has become internationally renowned for artworks about the relationship of public cultural institutions with oil companies.
[4] Early in 2010 Liberate Tate issued an open invitation for artists, art lovers and other concerned members of the public to act to ensure that Tate ends its oil sponsorship.
This led to a growing movement of artists and the public, including Tate members, raising their voices for a more ethical approach to the art museum's relationships and sources of funding.
Given this, Liberate Tate gave stakeholders this opportunity with an Open Letter to Nicholas Serota in late 2011.
