Whitechapel Gallery

ArtOpen until 6pmFreeAldgate East

La Whitechapel scopre artisti prima di chiunque altro fin dal 1901 — ha ospitato la prima mostra di Picasso nel Regno Unito nel 1939 e ha contribuito a lanciare le carriere di David Hockney, Lucian Freud e Mark Rothko. La galleria, ampliata, è uno spazio luminoso e generoso, con una voce curatoriale forte. Le serate del giovedì, con apertura prolungata, sono gratuite e conviviali. Uno dei luoghi d'arte più importanti di Londra, senza i prezzi o la folla del West End.
