The actual Tate Liverpool is being refurbished. There is however a small very exhibition on bricks which consists of a dozen brick sculptures and paintings followed by a film. Don’t really get the rather downbeats previous reviews of people. The exhibition was really interesting and so was the film, quite lone at 60 minutes but we enjoyed it. Of course it is not going to have the same appeal and range of exhibits the ‘normal’ Tate has but this was to be expected. I can understand staff advising not to touch the exhibits, don’t have a problem with that, it is their job to protect them whilst they are in show! Staff who spoke to us were very friendly and helpful. Do hope to go back after 2025 when the Tate proper has been revamped. Read the website beforehand, at least you will know exactly what you are getting!
It's a pared down set of exhibits while the main museum building is undergoing renovation. I loved both the Tates in London but was quite disappointed. Will have to come back when it reopens.
The original Tate Liverpool in Royal Albert Dock has been closed for a 2-years renovation. It has since moved into RIBA Royal Institute of British Architects with a pared down display of exhibits. Underwhelming honestly. Best to come back in 2025 when Tate reopens.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
The actual Tate Liverpool is being refurbished. What is on display is a very limited exhibition on bricks which consists of a dozen brick sculptures and paintings followed by a film. That's it. Despite there being a Lego table for kids and a small shop having items for kids, the exhibition itself isn't at all kid friendly with a rude member of staff pointing out on entering the room that the sculptures shouldn't be touched... a pity really, we were up for a game of jenga after playing with the lego
Went to the smaller version as it has moved for refurbishment. Really cool exhibits and nice staff just a bit sparse due to the relocation.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
There are a lot of worthy exhibits. As is usual in modern art, without descriptions not much would be clear, but the writing is very decent and really makes you see the meanings behind the clutter of objects. Picasso and Dalí are modestly neighboring with the most daring exhibits.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Don’t get me wrong, I love the Tate Modern at Liverpool. It makes you think and has an eclectic range of carefully chosen pieces to really challenge your perceptions, but it is closed at the moment and has ‘moved’ around the corner, temporarily. There is a shop and café, but the exhibition space is tiny and given over to an architectural themed exhibition in a couple of small rooms. There was also a breakout room with some activities for kids but nothing else to see unless there was and no-one was pointing me In the right direction or signposting it to me. I came to Liverpool to see the Tate in its temporary home and left very confused and disappointed.
Tate Liverpool - A beautiful gallery full of contemporary art What is Tate Liverpool? Tate Liverpool is an art gallery that is located in the heart of Liverpool. They hold a number of exhibitions, festivals and displays that take place throughout the year. Exhibitions JMW Turner with Lamin Fofana: Dark Waters This Exhibition presents JMW Turner’s work in a new immersive way with music created by Lamin Fofana. Turners artwork is truly incredible in transporting us to the seas. It features beautiful details of ships and breath taking landscapes. In addition, the music brings the works to life and adds a sprinkle of magic. It was also relatable in the issues that they represented and this included the power and politics of the ocean. They also focused on the dangers of the waters around the British Coast. This was done with simplicity and style. However most of the artwork were of ships and boats. I would have loved to have seen some variety in the works such as including people or conveying their body language in the artworks. It would also have been more engaging if there was some video footage or to have a interactive element included too. Ideas Depot The Ideas Depot is a dynamic collection of artwork that is chosen with primary school children that is designed to be enjoyed by everyone no matter what their age is. This was one of the highlights of the visit as it had an eclectic collection of artwork that was unique and eye-catching. Some used everyday kitchen utensils to create a piece of art that was exciting. Some of the artwork that caught my eye was a camera that took the same scene in different angles, a staircase that was quirky and more. It was engaging and it makes you appreciate art in new ways. The Liverpool Biennial It was the biggest collection of artwork where it is created using objects that you use on a regular basis. Some that stood out and were intriguing was a chair made out of beads and a piece that was made out of cuscus. Incredible. It is contemporary art at its best and it uses your imagination in mindboggling ways. Entry and Pricing Entry to the collections at Tate Liverpool is free of charge. In relation to the special exhibitions then you are required to book a timed slot and pay online. For further details then check out the Tate Liverpool website. Facilities Tate Liverpool has a café that serves a selection of sandwiches and hot meals. They also offer hot and cold drinks too. It is on the pricey side. An alternative is the food and drink vans near the Docks to which you can sit down to eat whilst enjoying the lovely views. Toilets are on site. Lighting and Access Lighting at the JMW Turner Exhibition was OK but was not great as some aspects were done in dim lighting. Despite this we overcome the challenge to the best of my ability. The lighting in the collections was decent and I could see most of the artwork which helped me to enjoy my experience here. In relation to access at Tate Liverpool there are stairs and lifts to all floors so if you have mobility issues then use the lifts as it would be easier to navigate. Parking Tate Liverpool does not have its own designated car park however there is plenty of pay and display parking near the Docks and Museum. Payment is required even if you have a Blue Badge. If you love contemporary art that is engaging and fun that plays with your mind and senses then Tate Liverpool is the place for you.
TATE Liverpool is closed and undergoing reconstruction for another approximately two years. The shop with a small cafe and a very small exhibition about the urban development of Liverpool is now located across the harbor basin in an overflow building see photo attached to this review located 450m away from the original art gallery entrance.
The Tate Liverpool is a great space and well worth a visit or more as it’s free! It’s in a good location on the Royal Albert Dock with easy access for pushchairs and wheelchairs etc although on my visit today the lift down to the toilets was broken. The Reception has free lockers which was really handy to leave our bags whilst we explored the free exhibitions. It was surprisingly quiet today Thursday morning but that meant that we could get close to the exhibition pieces and there was no queueing. I would definitely visit again!
