The British Art Show is widely recognised as the most ambitious and influential exhibition of contemporary British art. Organised by Hayward Touring, it takes place every five years and tours to four different cities across the UK.

Curated by Lisa Le Feuvre and Tom Morton, the 39 selected artists have been chosen on the grounds of their significant contribution to contemporary art in the last five years. All artworks included have been produced since 2005 and encompass sculpture, painting, installation, drawing, photography, film, video and performance, with many artists creating new works especially for the exhibition.

It takes as its subtitle In the Days of the Comet, employing the motif of the comet to explore and draw together a related set of concerns in contemporary British art. The comet, here, operates primarily as a measure of time, an emblem of historical recurrence and as a pocket or counter world. It may also be understood as a harbinger of change, an indifferent wished-upon star, and a hidden thing that is always with us.

A Hayward Touring exhibition organised in collaboration with galleries across Nottingham, Glasgow and Plymouth and at the Hayward Gallery in London.
