In honour of Berlin-born British artist Frank Auerbach's 84th birthday, Tate Britain is assembling around 70 of his paintings and drawings from the 1950s onwards, reaffirming his status as one of the pre-eminent painters of our age. Curated by long-time model Catherine Lampert, who sat for Auerback every week for 37 years, the exhibition brings together the artist and sitter and is sure to offer an intriguing angle on the modern master.
