Newest Review: ... walk into a large box in total darkness. In all there are seven levels to the Tate Modern and most of the galleries are free however they do have special exhibitions and for these you do have to buy a ticket however there is plenty of good stuff to see without spending a penny and walking around the various galleries is a real journey of dioscovery with some great works of art and others ... more

Premium Review Tate Modern: Great free day out for the whole family (401 words)

If you are looking for something to do free in London then one of the options open to you is the Tate Modern and as it is inside it is a great choice in the winter.

For most people the words Modern Art conjure up images of the Turner Prize and the messed up bedding of Tracey Emin which is a shame because the Turner Prize is hardly a good representation of what modern art can offer. As a slight aside what Emin piece of work did actually facilitate was two Japanese performance artists who decided to have a pillow fight on the bed, I could not help but appreciate their style. I have always enjoyed visiting art shows and have even bought a couple of paintings in my time, there is something pleasing about buying an original painting and hanging it on your walls, it does not have to appreciate in value to give pleasure and a ...  Read the complete review
