The
Tate
Britain
is
always
an
enjoyable
experience.
Depending
on
your
artistic
proclivities
you
will
always
find
something
that
you
visually
enjoy
or
that
speaks
to
your
inner
emotional
being.
The
architectural
qualities
of
the
building
are
quite
soothing,
it's
cavernous
central
hall
when
not
filled
with
a
riotus
or
experimental
sculptural
installation
can
be
quite
peaceful
and
cool
on
a
hot
summers
day.
Tate
Britain's
exhibition
program
is
varied
and
takes
in
artists
across
the
spectrum,
recent
shows
have
included
Lynette
Yadom-Boakye,
William
Blake,
Cornelia
Parker,
Aubrey
Beardsley,
The
Rosettis,
Rachel
Whiteread,
Paul
Nash
and
many
many
more.
One
of
my
favourites
was
a
recent
retrospective
exhibition
of
Paula
Regos
work
before
she
passed
away,
which
was
exceptionally
well
presented,
I
returned
3
times
as
there
was
so
much
to
take
in.
I
would
suggest
getting
membership
if
you
are
an
art
lover
and
intend
to
visit
often
it's
a
lot
more
cost
effective
than
purchasing
tickets
for
the
paid
shows
singularly.
The
free
permanent
collection
has
recently
been
rehung
including
more
artists
living
and
dead
from
various
diverse
areas
of
Britain.
I
visited
to
view
the
rehang
and
although
some
inclusions
seemed
slightly
jarring
purely
in
location,
on
a
whole
I
enjoyed
it.
I
always
appreciate
it
when
national
art
institutions
make
an
effort
to
provide
further
context
and
diversify
their
holdings
to
better
represent
the
nation
they
serve.
There's
a
wonderful
room
of
Rothkos
in
which
you
get
to
fully
appreciate
their
size
and
emotional
depth
in
subdued
lighting.
As
for
the
facilities,
there
are
plenty
of
toilets
and
they
are
kept
clean
to
a
good
standard.
There's
a
free
coat
check
although
donations
are
accepted.
There
are
plenty
of
soft
seats
around
the
gallery
spaces
and
also
small
and
light
foldable
stalls
you
can
carry
with
you.
This
is
especially
handy
for
those
who
wish
to
sketch
as
you
can
prop
yourself
up
infront
of
some
sculptural
works
by
Henry
Moore
or
any
other
wonderful
form
and
visual
delight
and
sketch
to
your
hearts
content.
Tate
Britain
is
one
of
my
go
to
places,
whether
it's
to
gather
inspiration
for
my
own
future
artistic
works,
to
further
expand
my
knowledge
and
mind
or,
to
simply
experience
a
moment
of
cool
peace
away
from
the
hustle
and
bustle
of
the
street,
I
can't
recommend
it
enough.
