walsall art gallery

The New Art Gallery is sited in the centre of the West Midlands town of Walsall, England. It was built with 21 million of public funding, including 15.75 million from the National Lottery. It opened in 2000, superseeding the town's old gallery and an Arts Centre that had been closed by the Council in the early 1990s. The New Art Gallery's stark building won several architectural awards. The Gallery houses the fixed Garman Ryan collection of sculptures and paintings by modern masters including a large selection of work by Jacob Epstein, and also hosts visual-arts exhibitions. Its first Director was Peter Jenkinson. After he stepped down, no further Director was appointed by the Council for over two years; the Gallery's curatorial direction & finances consequently faltered. Walsall Town Council funds the Gallery, and it is now run by council officers. Admission to the Gallery is free.
