Lets Go There - A guide to Art Galleries

Art Galleries

Art galleries these days are so much more than stuffy rooms full of old paintings by dead people.

Galleries throughout Britain house showcase some of the most exciting creative work from the UK and the rest of the world.

From classic of Constable to the innovative style of Gilbert and George there's something to suit every taste and even provoke a few arguments!

Even some of the buildings themselves, like the Tate Gallery in St Ives or the Glasgow Gallery of Modern Art in Glasgow are worth visiting, even just to hear the stories of how buildings were adapted or built to house collections.

Don't forget the huge number of small galleries in towns and cities across the country specialising in everything from degree art shows to national classics.

Or why not check out the growing number of sculpture gardens - the perfect way to combine some art appreciation with the outdoors.
