About Gallery Of Modern Art

The Gallery of Modern Art is the biggest and the most popular art gallery in the city, located in a Neoclassical building. The Neo-classical building was the townhouse of William Cunninghame, the eighteenth-century tobacco lord. It was bought by the Glasgow government and became the Royal Exchange after extensive reconstruction. Today it houses an impressive collection of contemporary art by international and local artists. You will also be able to admire works by Andy Warhol, Sebastio Salgado, David Hockney, John Bellamy, and Ken Currie inside the gallery.

The gallery organizes various temporary exhibitions throughout the year and hosts artists' projects that seek to address social and contemporary issues. It also offers artist talks, screenings, and lectures by eminent artists. There's also a library within the gallery with a huge collection of books and free internet access. You can grab a cup of coffee/tea and chat with your friends at the on-site café.
