Tate Modern is celebrating its tenth anniversary by announcing that it has acquired 13 new works by artists from the Middle East and Africa, as part of its efforts to expand the geographical reach of its collection.

Since 2000, Tate has acquired 4,104 works for its collection to be displayed across all four locations it runs. Of the 640 artists from the collection that have gone on display at Tate Modern over the past decade, 458 were produced by non-Britons.

Other recent acquisitions have included work by artists like Korean-born Do Ho Suh, Indian-born Subodh Gupta, South African-born Santu Mofokeng, and Cuban-born Felix Gonzalez-Torres, whose Untitled (Double Portrait), 1991, is now part of the Tate's collection.

Tate’s head of collections, Frances Morris, reiterated the museum's focus on collecting international art. "Tate aspires to collect the best art regardless of geography and to contribute towards a reshaping of art history reflecting local art histories across the world," she said.

For those looking to see some of Tate's newest geographically-diverse holdings, the museum has put on display pieces like Cuban-American artist Ana Mendietas Untitled (Blood and Feathers #2), 1974, which it acquired in 2008, and Brazilian Cildo Meireles' Eureka/Blindhotland, 1970-5, a 2007 acquisition.
