Tate Modern



Situada en la ribera del Támesis, la gran catedral londinense del arte moderno internacional fue un día una estación eléctrica. Dentro de la Tate Modern encontrará exposiciones temporales de artistas de primer nivel como Rachel Whiteread, Frida Kahlo, Martin Kippenberger, Mark Rothko y Kandinsky. Además, gracias a su situación ribereña, los restaurantes de la galería ofrecen unas vistas espectaculares del Támesis.

Worth a visit even if you aren't a fan of modern art
I don't consider myself a fan of modern art so was surprised at how much I enjoyed our visit.
I'd recommend going with other people, so you can discuss what you see and have a bit of a debate about it all, which makes the experience more enjoyable.
We went when 'The Crack' was being exhibited in the main hall and found it all quite strange but thought-provoking (even if your thoughts are 'this is just weird'). Saw some original Chagall, Rothko and Miro works which was fantastic as I love their work. And of course the famous Water Lilies and some Jackson Pollock works.
Well worth a visit - and you can't really complain when it's free! Don't think I would want to pay to visit but its certainly fascinating stuff. and well laid out.
LOVE IT or at least makes you talk about it...
I LOVE the Tate Modern! I been there twice and it was totally worth it both times. First, you might not like modern art but it is a great conversation piece (my 3 yr old could do that!). Second, most of it is FREE! The only part you have to pay for is the special shows. The benefit of paying is that they are less busy. The free rooms are packed full of screaming kids. Third, the food is pretty good so when you get tired, grab a banana bread, some water and enjoy the view. Finally, the store is pretty good. You could spend quite a bit of time in the store alone.
The bad parts are, no photography and people seem to enjoy bringing their screaming kids.
Question mark
I know that not everyone will like modern art and that person I suppose- is me. I came to this museum because it had a late closing time (10pm).. otherwise I wouldn't have bothered. How can these paintings and figures be worth money? My 10 year old cousin can make better "art" by accident. I couldn't help but laugh at most of the exhibits and cringe at the room where the artist used real animal blood to paint a canvas.
Free Guided Tours Enhance Experience
I went to the Tate Modern yesterday. I am so glad we joined up the free guided tours they offered at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. Had I known how helpful the tours would be, I would have gone earlier in the day for the 10 and 11 o'clock tours for the two other galleries. I now know what to look for in these art forms that had quite escaped me before. The Soviet propaganda poster exhibit was especially intriguing, and opened a window to what life must have been like in a country where information was so tightly controlled.
Lunch in the restaurant on the 7th floor was lovely, but to get a seat next to the window, I advise booking a reservation in advance.
interesting for a few things, but forget the audio guide
On the Tate Modern itself-- it all depends on you. If you like the shock-value style of modern art, then you'll probably love it. If you think that the value of art lies mainly in its ability to depict the world or compose beautiful images, then this may not be the museum for you. I'm an art lover and personally, I buzzed this museum like I've never buzzed before, liked seeing the Picassos and a few others things, but I won't go back.
On the audioguide-- don't waste your money. I got it since I get audio guides everywhere I go. The commentary on the Picasso paintings was fabulous, but on everything else it was a dud. Additionally, the audio guides are incredibly difficult to use. I am in the mid-20s, totally with the computer generation, and I found the touch screens difficult to manipulate. I know the museum is trying to be slick and hip, but they either need to invest more money in better touch-screen audio guides or go back to the old-school versions.
