Swindon Art Gallery

Swindon's remarkable art collection now has a reputation as one of the best of British 20th Century Art outside London.

These works form the nucleus of the collection and include many of the major British artists of the day such as Ben Nicholson, Henry Moore, Graham Sutherland, L S Lowry, Paul Nash and many others.

A more recent acquisition was Laundromat Locomotion, consisting of 12 photographs by Turner Prize short-listed artist, Steven Pippin.

Artists in the collection include: Terry Frost, Howard Hodgkin, Gwen and Augustus John, Maggi Hambling, Ivon Hitchens, Christopher Le Brun, and Lisa Milroy.

There is also a significant collection of studio pottery, with works by David Leach, Lucie Rie and Hans Coper among others.

Swindon Museum and Art Gallery are housed together in a building on Bath Road, Old Town, adjacent to the Community Heritage Museum.
