Whitechapel Gallery

ArtOpen until 9pmFreeAldgate East

Η Whitechapel ανακαλύπτει καλλιτέχνες πριν από όλους τους άλλους ήδη από το 1901 — φιλοξένησε την πρώτη έκθεση του Picasso στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο το 1939 και συνέβαλε στην εκκίνηση της καριέρας των David Hockney, Lucian Freud και Mark Rothko. Ο διευρυμένος χώρος της γκαλερί είναι φωτεινός και γενναιόδωρος, με ισχυρή επιμελητική ταυτότητα. Οι βραδινές εκδηλώσεις της Πέμπτης (lates) είναι δωρεάν και έχουν ζωντανή, κοινωνική ατμόσφαιρα. Ένας από τους σημαντικότερους χώρους τέχνης του Λονδίνου, χωρίς τις τιμές ή το πλήθος του West End.
