The GoMa (as it is known) Also check out the Library and cafe , where you can also get internet access for free. The architecture is also a real treat.

Marie-Anne Ramond

Nice exhibition on Nicky de Saint Phalle work on the last floor. Very surprising to find a museum of modern art in this kind of building. This is a must-see in Glasgow.

Peter Callaghan

Wonderful architecture (inside and out), great basement cafe and library , let down by the actual "art " which ranks high on the pretentious scale.

Stephen Hughes

Banksy exhibition of stencils is very good. Well laid out. A few bottle necks as you walk round. Staff all very helpful and friendly .

Brooke Louise

Exhibition focused on the massacre in Negros, Phillipines in 1985. Take advantage of this access to culture while it's still free..

Solo Mascarenhas

Don't miss the medieval weapons room. The two-handed German sword is terrifying.

Y Kim

Must-visit! Highly recommend the current exhibition on the ground floor. Free entry .

Layla

One of the few galleries I've seen that own performances and installations.

The current touring exhibition , Art from Elsewhere, is thought provoking. A must see - on until 1 February 2015.

Social issues are a focal point of the museum but it’s not all heavy going: there’s a big effort made to keep the kids entertained.

Café in the basement : enjoy current books and magazines for free with a cup of coffee

The top floor is the best!
