Both the London Tate galleries are well presented places containing a lot of good stuff - not least the attractive members facilities at £94 a year.
However, having now been members for several years, our use of both places is falling off. Furthermore, there has been a lot of coverage in the national press in recent weeks of what I regard as Tate Junk. Stuff into which the art establishment has been conned into putting public money. Both having the stuff and making a lot of pomp & circumstance about it is a double whammy - so my bit of private money has today been withdrawn.
If I feel the need for junk there is usually some to be found online at Hiram Butler (see references 1 and 2). No need to trek into town at all.
