What you can see

Visitors will be able to see a new display of paintings by Aliza Nisenbaum, celebrating Merseyside’s NHS staff. The route then takes you up to the first floor to see two displays of the Tate collection. Democracies and Whose Tradition? bring more than 60 new artworks to our gallery. On the same floor, visit Ideas Depot which is a display of works selected by Primary teachers in Liverpool.

The route leads you up to the second floor where you will find Constellations. Here you can enjoy works by Mark Rothko, Nicholas Hlobo and Lynda Benglis. Also on this floor you can visit Op Art in Focus. This much-loved display explores optical art from the 1960s to today and features the well-known colourful floor installation, Zobop by Jim Lambie.  Both these displays will be on display until 31 January 2021.
