"The use of cultural institutions as regeneration tools within the wider agenda to promote cities of culture is wide spread, Corinna will examine the effect of Tate Modern as an urban catalyst on the Bankside area of London, and how the institution has been used to promote London as a world class city. She will also discuss how a new form of public space has been created as mediated through an art institution and what this means in terms of a new definition of public space for London."
