George and Gilbert Centre

 


Gilbert and George Centre

The recently opened centre is well worth a visit. Not a large Gallery, but magnificent pictures and an interesting interview with the pair. Close to Aldgate and Aldgate East stations.

Whitechapel Gallery

While there pop in and take a look at the interesting Whitechapel Gallery and then on for lunch in Brick Lane.
