Om
Raske fakta: Gratis samtidskunstutstillinger skiftes ut omtrent seks ganger i året i en ombygd viktoriansk bygning som har huset utstillinger siden 1891. Galleriets opprinnelige forelesningssal har fortsatt sine store eikebenker fra 1890-årene, noe som gir de hvite kube-utstillingene en tydelig gammeldags bakgrunn.
Høydepunkter: Hagen bak skjuler en toetasjes mursteinslysthus kalt O'Flynn-bygningen, så nøye plassert mellom trærne at de fleste besøkende går rett forbi den. Bygget på oppdrag fra galleriets mesén i 2003, huser denne hemmelige andre lokaliteten fremadstormende kunstnere og lar deg titte inn i et aktivt kunstneratelier i etasjen over.
Insidertips
- Walk through to the back garden, a peaceful walled courtyard that many visitors never realize exists on the other side of the gallery.
- Look for the O'Flynn Building outside in the garden, a separate contemporary space that hosts smaller, more experimental shows.
- The gallery sits in Peckham Road's gentrified stretch, so pair your visit with a walk along the nearby cafes and the famous Peckham Levels rooftop.
- Check the website before visiting because closing happens during between-exhibition installation weeks, which can last several days.
