Tate Britain, Turner, Moore

During the break I have managed to visit Tate Britain after the recent restoration. Tate Britain is very fortunate with this amazing building and amazing collections and now you can take a walk through 500 years of British Art. There is also a new Welcome Area for families, on the offer activities which encourage exploration and understanding of architecture, space, and scale. Feel free to let your child use a camera in the gallery.
For me the most impressive is collection of Joseph Turner’s paintings and new room with Henry Moore sculptures. Without crowd you can actually spend some reflective time in this gallery.

Looking for a quick inspiration II

Quick tour through gallery always brings a smile on my face. I arrived early for a work meeting at Pimlico and I decided to have a short tour and stop for a coffee at Tate Britain. My plan was to visit only Joseph Turner room, however the gallery is in the middle of big changes. The idea is to expand the gallery to transform, remodel and renovate. Can’t wait to visit again and see new areas dedicated to Joseph Turner, William Blake and Henry Moore.

I found only one Joseph Turner painting – Going to the Ball (San Martino), however there are other great artworks, which I like and some new displays:
