The Tate Modern’s focus is on international contemporary art with 70,000 artworks in four galleries. It is London’s premier art museum, featuring British art from the 16th century to today. Tate Modern, one of the four galleries, was established in 1994 in the former Bankside Power Station on the banks of the Thames, and opened to the public in 2000 after extensive renovations. Tate Modern is a London landmark for both its modern art holdings and its architecture. This museum of modern and contemporary art from around the world allows visitors to see the works of artists such as Picasso, Dalí, Matisse, and Warhol.
