Tate Modern draws the crowds for its grandeur as much as its shows. Housed in a converted power station on the Thames, the building itself is half the experience. But what keeps people coming back is the programming: major retrospectives that reframe how you see an artist, commissions by living practitioners, and ambitious work that doesn't fit the usual museum boxes. Kinetic sculpture, video, photography, conceptual pieces with genuine wit. You'll see installation art here before anywhere else in London. The crowd is predictably mixed: tourists ticking off a checklist alongside people who've come for one specific show.
