GoMA

Service

Quality

Value

The GoMA is oddly housed in a beautiful old building. Maybe that's why someone stuck a traffic cone on the head of the statue outside - it's the clearest indication of what the building's used for.I don't know of any locals who go here, it's mostly full of tourists taking photos. I'm not a huge fan of modern art but I have liked a few of the pieces I've seen here. The photos of home-made weapons were interesting and informative.If you're in the city, bored and like a little art visit this place, it's free and quite small so it shouldn't take too long to get around.

Worth a look, Love the building

Modern art isn't exactly my cup of tea and I've been in this building a few times and not seen many things that interested me, but one thing that pleases me it that it seems to change the art quite frequently (well in comparison to others anyway) so there's often something new to see - particularly on the ground floor gallery.In the basement is a Glasgow city library. Before GoMA opened the building was ‘Stirling's Library' and the books which are now relegated to underground were on the ground floor as you entered. Just going in there made me want to read. The interior was much more in keeping with the building but now the old building has a modern interior to display the modern art that doesn't suit it very well and perhaps many Glaswegian's view of GoMA are coloured by remembering it as it was.

It may be art, but it's bloody poor welding

Fantastic building, architecturally. Pity it's full of modern art.
