20th Century spotlight: Ulster Museum, Belfast

David Saywell, Head of Digital Assets

Ulster Museum

Founded as the Belfast Natural History Society in 1821, Ulster Museum has included an art gallery since 1890. Originally called the Belfast Municipal Museum and Art Gallery, in 1929, it moved to its present location in Stranmillis. Since the 1940s the Ulster Museum has built up a very good collection of art by modern Irish, and particularly Ulster-based artists, as well as a representative selection of artworks by artists from all around the United Kingdom and beyond.

Artists featured in this Curation: Karel Appel (1921–2006), Kenneth Armitage (1916–2002), Francis Bacon (1909–1992), Walter Bayes (1869–1955), Keith Baynes (1887–1977), Vanessa Bell (1879–1961), Alice Berger Hammerschlag (1917–1969), Robert Polhill Bevan (1865–1925), Max Bill (1908–1984), Samuel John Lamorna Birch (1869–1955), and 99 more
