Newcastle Art Gallery is an interesting building. Opened in the same year as Roundhouse, it was designed by a council architect to do two main things, preserve and present art. It does these this remarkably well, but it’s also understated, sublime and a wonderful example of Brutalism. Its biggest flaw is not its designers fault, four and a half decades after its completion the Cities collection has grown 500% and it now time for change. The greatest chapter of this building history is about to be written.
