Tate Modern
Tate Modern is the national gallery of international modern art. Located in London, it is one of a family of four Tate galleries which display selections from the Tate Collection.
Created in the year 2000 from a disused power station in the heart of London, Tate Modern displays the national collection of international modern art. This is defined as art since 1900 and includes modern and contemporary British art representing all the major movements from Fauvism on. It includes important masterpieces by both Picasso and Matisse and one of the world's finest museum collections of Surrealism, including works by Dalí, Ernst, Magritte and Mirò. Its substantial holdings of American Abstract Expressionism include major works by Pollock as well as the nine Seagram Murals by Rothko which constitute the famous Tate Rothko Room.
Tate Modern has extensive and innovative interpretation, education and events programmes. Interpretation begins with texts in each room about the display and a caption for each work. There is an audio-guide, with contributions from artists and critics, a children's audio-guide, as well as an award-winning Multimedia Tour.
Around the galleries there are dedicated Reading Spaces, where you can relax while finding out more about the art on view, or you can visit the Clore Information Room to watch artists' videos or to browse the bookshelves. There is also a wide range of talks, lectures, and free and paid-for gallery tours.
