Visited London for three days this summer, and decided to visit the Tate Modern. We got incredibly lost and it took over an hour to find the location!! There was construction obscuring the entrance to the museum, the building also doesn't look like it could be a museum it looks like a business building. After all of the walking (and... More

Whether you live in London, a first time visitor or like us, regular visitors, I urge you not to exclude a visit to Tate Modern at Bankside. Quite apart from the amazing structure of the Tate Modern, it plays host to an incredible array of exhibitions of painting, sculpture, and installations. Adult or child, you will undoubtedly find something that... More

We popped into the Tate because we were staying on the south side during our visit. Can't say that I'm a big modern art fan, but it was worth a look. Monet's Waterlilies was a highlight. Went out onto the balcony overlooking the Thames and the kids played with the computer drawing program.

We enjoyed the special exhibit and did not have too much spare time to explore the museum. Wonderful modern pieces that even I recognized from my very limited knowledge and exposure to art.

Cold windy morning by the river - quiet walk along from London Bridge to the Tate. Went to see this American artist's first major retrospective in the UK, Interesting and thought provoking exhibition. The early part of the exhibition is hard to understand and you should probably read up before you go to understand some of the political messages. My... More

I LOVED the Tate. Honestly though, more for the wonderful structure (stunning the turbine room and fantastic view of the Thames from the cafeteria) than for works. In other museums of modern art works I've seen a lot more interesting, those shown here, except for a few pieces of really high value, did not delighted me. However worth a visit!

I visited The Tate Modern on a Saturday morning. Being poor student types we only ventured to see the free exhibitions, but some of the paid exhibitions looked very tempting, such as the Ibrahim El-Salahi: A Visionary Modernist. We didn't have time to visit all floors but settled on level 2 (Poetry and Dream) and level 4 (Structure and Clarity).... More

We went to the Tate modern to see Damien Hirst. Hirst's artwork is one of the shining stars of the Tate . But the Tate sent all ALL their Hirst on tour. Such a pity and really sad that they don't keep some of hat the Tate is most famous for onsite permanently.

During our visit I became ill. A staff member saw me on a bench and asked if he could help. He brought water and I hoped to be able to make my way out of the museum by closing time. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The staff member and a medical person on staff helped me into a wheelchair and... More
