The renowned artist initially gained a cult following with his 1989 film Looking For Langston, which examines Langston Hughes and the Harlem Renaissance. The Looking For Langston soundtrack had its first-ever vinyl pressing via The Vinyl Factory. Both standard and signed copies of the release are available from our store.

What Freedom Is To Me highlights Julien’s barrier-breaking work across disciplines, including music, film, dance, photography, theatre, painting and sculpture.

Tickets for What Freedom Is To Me are priced at £17. Tate Britain members can attend for free.
