The BICEP /Keck experiments currently have world leading sensitivity to CMB polarization at angular scales of a few degrees and 150 GHz. In conjuction with Planck data at 350 GHz (to constrain galactic dust contamination) these data are starting to set tighter limits on a potential signal from Inflationary Gravitational Waves than can be achieved from non-polarized observations. I will describe the experiment – sited at the South Pole in Antartica – as well as the data analysis and results. I will conclude with the status of new observations at 95 and 220 GHz from BICEP3 and Keck and plans for the future.
