An artwork depicting NHS heroes once displayed at Tate Liverpool has been installed at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital.
Presented to Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust in Liverpool by the Tate, the artwork depicts its staff who continued working on the frontlines during the Covid-19 pandemic. It was created by New York based artist Aliza Nisenbaum to celebrate the efforts of NHS key workers who continued in their roles throughout the challenges of the pandemic.
The group portrait is one of 20 works that were originally commissioned by Tate Liverpool and shown inside the waterfront gallery in 2021. Since the works have been on display, the Tate made the decision that a fitting setting for the artwork would be at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital ahead of the NHS 75th anniversary celebrations.
