Read moreGoMa, as it is called in Glasgow, is the second most popular modern art gallery in Scotland, after the one in Edinburgh. We meet David Hockney, Sebastiao Salgado, Andy Warhol and Scotsmen like John Bellany and Ken Currie. The building itself dates back to 1778 and a statue faces it. It is the Duke of Wellington, on whose head a traffic cone is placed. This local tradition, which is several decades old, almost died when the town hall wanted to raise the monument. The man with the cone is one of the city's proudest.
