The film will go on public view in April following a period of community outreach and private community viewings.

A piece of art about the Grenfell Tower fire is due to go on display as its creator Steve McQueen said he is determined that the disaster is never forgotten.

The 24-minute film of close-up imagery in the months after the June 2017 fire – which claimed the lives of 72 people – will be on view at the Serpentine South gallery in London from next month.

The art will go on public view following what the gallery said was a period of community outreach and private community viewings.
