Opened in 1996, the Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) is the most visited modern art gallery in Scotland.

It is housed in an iconic neoclassical building located in the heart of Glasgow, and plays an important part in the city's rich heritage through its programme of temporary exhibitions and workshops. The gallery focuses on artists whose concerns, influences and interests are shared by those in Glasgow.


Permanent collection

GoMA is the centre for Glasgow's modern art collection and while not on permanent display, the changing displays at the gallery are inspired by what the city owns.
