Medieval and Renaissance GalleriesThe V & A has been on a makeover mission of late, spending millions on new galleries to house their Theatre and Performance and Ceramics collections. But the latest launch, the ?30 million Medieval and Renaissance Galleries which opens on 2nd December, unveils the biggest project undertaken since the museum's British Galleries opened in 2001. The regenerated space dedicates ten galleries - an entire wing - to the museum's unique collection of masterpieces of medieval craftsmanship and an impressive collection of Italian Renaissance sculpture. An entire gallery is devoted to a group of pieces by Donatello, his 15th-century contemporaries and followers. Exquisite and important medieval items include the Becket Casket - an enamel casket dedicated to St Thomas Becket dating to around 1180 - and the Gloucester Candlestick (1104-15). Hunting tapestries hang alongside Gothic altarpieces while significant pieces like the Symmachi Panel show the influence of the later Roman Empire on medieval art. MUMA (McInnes Usher McKnight Architects) - the architectural practice already responsible for the V & A Cafe which opened in November 2006 - have been tasked with the redesign.
 

About Victoria and Albert (V & A) Museum

The Victoria and Albert Museum (or V & A as everyone calls it) was originally founded in 1852 to inspire and educate British designers and manufacturers. Today it houses over 4 million items spanning centuries and hundreds of cultures. The stunning collection covers European, Indian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Islamic artefacts ranging from ceramics, glass, metalwork and sculpture to costume, armour, weaponry and furniture.
