Newest Review: ... animation. As if this weren't enough, of course, the ICA supports current movie making, often being the first cinema in the United Kingdom to screen foreign movies. Recently, for example, the ICA hosted the premiere screening of Edward Yang's stunning 2000 movie 'Yi Yi (A One And A Two)'. It also screened Japanese horror films 'Ring', 'Ring 2' and ... more

London's Institute of Contemporary Arts (or ICA, as I'm going to conveniently abbreviate it to from now on) is a great venue for seeing interesting new art and cinema.

Very large exhibition, lots of great examples of art from different cities in different periods of the Twentieth century Prohibitive admission cost, unlikely that any visitors will find all the cities' exhibitions equally interesting

ignis fatuus means will-o'-the-wisp illiterate means I can't read

A great atmospheric gallery with great art work! slightly difficult to find

excellent presentation; informative and inspirational; including it in the museum allows a full and interesting day out could be much bigger; including it in the museum can mean it's relatively expensive and crowded for a photo exhibition; they never have postcards of the ones you want!

free; convenient location; small size means it won't take all day to see; nice cafe some parts too small; exhibitions may not be to everyone's taste
