IKON GALLERY REVIEWS
Best gallery I have visited in Birmingham. Astonishing artist with thoughtful artworks. The curation of the exhibition is also brilliant. You could also walk beside the canal when you come visit.
An absolute diamond for location! A suggested donation of £5 but honestly worth so much more! The foka wolf exhibition is thought provoking & a chance to learn something! Definitely visit this place if your in the mood for art and knowledge.
A fantastic place for lovers of Avant Garde and expressionist art. Well worth a visit.
