Birmingham has the largest collection of municipally-owned art in the UK. There are many smaller, private galleries scattered around the region. Here are a few of them.

Ikon Gallery
Oozells Street
A small, private gallery of ceramics, galss, sculpture and art. My favourite is the torso of a woman made from fine wire mesh - interesting shadows it throws too.

Called 'one of the finest small galleries in Europe'. the Barber has a fine collection to rival the quality of the National Gallery and the Wallace Collection. It includes works by Monet, Dega, Renoir, van Gogh, Gaugin, Magritte, Picasso, Rodin and Degas.
