Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery
World-class local authority run museum and art gallery in the centre of Exeter
The Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery (RAMM) is Exeter’s world-class museum, with displays that reveal Devon and Exeter’s rich history and global connections. These stunning displays of extraordinary objects inspire artists to create new work and provide a rich context for an engaging contemporary art programme that includes temporary collection interventions and exhibitions.
Featuring new and commissioned work by internationally-renowned artists ranging from Sonia Boyce, Joy Gregory and Bedwyr Williams to Susan Derges, Michelle Williams Gamaker and Lucy Skaer, as well as existing works by artists such as Mikhail Karikis and Dorothy Cross in RAMM-curated shows, contemporary art at RAMM reflects the varied and fascinating subjects explored in the museum. RAMM also supports and shows artists living and working in the region, including in 2019/20 the Exeter-based artist collective PSU and Bristol-based Bryony Gillard.
A flagship Exeter City Council service, RAMM attracts funding from other sources and is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. It was the Art Fund Museum of the Year in 2012.
