Sainsbury Centre For Visual Arts

Behind the recently refurbished walls of the University of East Anglia, you will find Norwich's ultra chic, designer concrete and glass Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts. This world-class art collection is the main reason to head to the city's Western outskirts!

The Sainsbury Collection is personal and hand picked, many of which were purchased after an instinctive response felt by the Sainsbury's themselves. Modern European art is interspersed with fine and applied arts from Africa, the Pacific, the Americas, Asia and Egypt, mediaeval Europe and the ancient Mediterranean. From the likes of Picasso, Degas and Modigiliani, the figure is the re-occurring theme.
