Opened in 2000, the Modern Tate has amazed both industry insiders, art lovers and tourists and detractors are few and far between. The museum, housed amongst drab, concrete blocks on Bankside, has few features left of its previous incarnation as a 1950's power station. Visitors will encounter innovative and attention-grabbing works. The expanse of exhibition space now houses a variety of works from 1900 to the present, including works from the most important artists of the century to today's rising stars. Admission is free but a donation is appreciated.
