Gallery of Modern Art, Art museum in Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow, Scotland.
The neoclassical building features a columned facade, round dome, and four exhibition floors displaying Scottish and international contemporary artworks.
Originally constructed in 1778 as a mansion for tobacco merchant William Cunninghame, the building later served as the Royal Exchange until its transformation into a museum.
The Gallery of Modern Art presents rotating exhibitions of paintings, sculptures, photographs, and multimedia installations from the 1950s to present day.
Visitors can access the museum free of charge Monday through Thursday and Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00, Friday and Sunday from 11:00 to 17:00.
The Duke of Wellington statue at the entrance regularly displays a traffic cone on its head, despite repeated removal attempts by city officials.
