Tate Modern
Closest Hotels to Tate Modern:
Tate Modern, housed in the former Bankside Power Station on the south bank of the River Thames, opened in 2000. It showcases international modern art from 1900 to the present day and, like its sister museum, Tate Britain, it presents visitors with a themed, rather than a chronological, tour of art. Each theme is set in its own set of galleries where a variety of media, including photography, film, sculpture and painting are displayed. The themes are Nude/Action/Body, History/Memory/Society, Still Life/Object/Real Life and Landscape/Matter/Environment, and feature works by artists such as Dalí, Picasso, Matisse, Warhol, Rothko and Gilbert & George.
