Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA)
Glasgow
The Gallery of Modern Art in the heart of Glasgow is the second most visited contemporary
art gallery outside of London and it is the main gallery of modern art in Glasgow.
Housed in an elegant building, the museum opened in 1996 and has since seen several
million visitors pass through its doors. Offering a thought-provoking programme
of temporary exhibitions and workshops, the Gallery of Modern Art displays work
by local and international artists including works by David Hockney, Sebastiao Salgado,
Andy Warhol and Scottish artists such as John Bellany and Ken Currie. Contemporary
social issues are also addressed through the Gallery of Modern Art’s major biannual
projects and the gallery as a whole continues to evolve, regularly attracting new
audiences.
There are a number of superb facilities including a dedicated Education and Access
studio, a library in the basement with a cafe, free Internet access terminals, multimedia,
art, and general book-lending facilities, and regular workshops and talks by artists.
