UCL has an extraordinary collection of Old Master prints and drawings by the likes of Dürer, Rembrandt, Turner and Constable not to mention graduation works by students of the Slade School (on the same campus) some of whom became celebrated artists such as Paula Rego and Jenny Saville. In fact over 40% of works in the collection are by women artists. Apart from sculptures by the 19th century bro-classical artist John Flaxman which have their own space, the only place for these works to be viewed is the UCL Art Museum a small room with an even smaller balcony. On display today apart from some Flaxman reliefs for gravestones the second part of an exhibition of sculptures by Slade Professor Edward Allington (1951-2017) demonstrating his interest in all things kitsch such as motorbike parts, toy dinosaurs and plastic grasshoppers.
The Flaxman Gallery at University College London is a small space, apparently the work space of the exhibition hall, with a special exhibition of the work of early Slade students, many of whom are women, and a few small historical works on the walls.
The UCL Museum can see many artists' masterpieces, and it feels like each pair is expensive.
The Museum of Art of City University of London, with a high level, has an international first-class level in its own university art department, and a wide variety of museum collections.
