Describing itself af 'The Museum for Everyone', the Ben Uri Gallery aims to explore the work and lives of nineteenth and twentieth-century Jewish artists in an artistic context stretching beyond the confines of Jewish history. The Ben Uri foundation was originally established in 1915 order to help Jewish migrant artists and craftsmen overcome the obstacles which they faced in joining the mainstream world of art. Today the Gallery holds over 1,300 works and hosts series of  fascinating temporary exhibitions which are always worth a look.
