is a new exhibition at Tate Modern organized in association with the Venice Biennale. The 10 global cities featured in Tate Modern's new show of the same name, among them Cairo, Shanghai, Istanbul, Mexico City and London, represent something different: they are, mostly, megalopolises that have experienced huge population and spatial growth over the past 20 years because of changes in the world economy. They reveal the seemingly unstoppable rise of urbanism: by 2030, two thirds of the world's population will live in cities, as compared with just 25 per cent a century ago.
Looks like it is definitely worth checking out.
