- Tina MSohar, Oman279 contributionsA very reasonable entrance fee with a huge collection. As with modern art, not all to our taste. We enjoyed the few Picasso pieces and Salvatore Dali. But many other artists from the regions as well. The space is beautiful and worth a visit if you have time.Written 13 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stijn T23 contributionsStunning exhibition Multiperspectives 2023. Excellent artist selection. Great variety of contemporary art (installation, painting, photo, video). The story was wel made. All information is available in English. Free WiFi and QR code for every work. Sad there is no possibility to buy a catalogue. I would definitely buy one because this exhibition is one of the best I have seen in years in contemporary Middle East.
Also great place and area away from the busy city. Old harbor has been renovated to art and entertainment place. I will come back for next exhibitionsWritten 12 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Yet it sounds as if it ought to be in Italy. The current exhibition spread over the two floors of its compact Mayfair townhouse called Cross-Atlantic spotlights art from late twentieth century/early twenty first century masters from the U.K. and U.S.A. The U.K. is represented almost exclusively by abstract artists such as Sandra Blow, Marc Vaux, Richard Smith and no fewer than three Albert Irvins; the U.S.A by the likes of Robert Motherwell, Larry Zox and Sam Francis. Multiple riots of colour entirely appropriate to lift the spirit after lockdown.Written 11 July 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Helmut SBangkok, Thailand2,036 contributionsThe Tahir Salahov House Museum is located in Old Baku City; it is open daily, allegedly there is a guided tour in English on Mondays; entrance is 4 Manat. Tahir Salahov never lived in the rooms, he used it as his work place. His sketches and paintings are on 3 floors but the 3rd floor was cordoned off so I could see those paintings only partly and from far away. In addition to the paintings there are many photos of Tahir Salahov with important persons such as Breshnev, Jelzin, the Pope John Paul II., and famous artists including Michael Jackson. After going through extreme poverty during his youth and being an outcast - his father was executed in 1938 and rehabilitated only in 1956 - he achieved fame and fortune through his paintings, received many awards and honorary citizenships, and travelled the world. Tahir Salahov lives in Moscow where he has a studio at the Moscow Art Institute.
I have visited a number of museums in Baku, sometimes the persons in charge of the museum cannot answer all questions about the life of the artists but they always are friendly and try their best. At this museum the 2 ladies behaved like watchdogs, they followed us every step, did not like to answer any question, in fact I felt very unwelcome when looking in their sour faces. Were they ordered to stay there on a Sunday and had other plans? Maybe, anyway it was a very unpleasant experience. Because of this I downgraded the museum to average.Written 31 March 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was the brainchild of Professor Roya Taghiyeva. It was established in 2016. It is a unique gallery because you can find both modern and traditional art forms here. Contemporary artists and fresh creative geniuses are welcomed here. You can see interesting exhibitions in this double storied building’s top floor. The ground floor is dedicated to permanent collection. Unique exhibitions have been held here like “My Doll, My Reality, My Future” and “Hello Portugal”. I found this place very interesting because in addition to the art you can also interact with artists, art appreciators and art critics here.Written 2 February 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ahmed RadyAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates6 contributionsMy family and I had an amazing time at 27qm-Tarana's small gallery and cafe. The owner, Ms. Tarana, was incredibly kind and hospitable, making us feel right at home. We participated in a master class on clay art, which was both fun and educational. It was a fantastic experience that we all enjoyed immensely. This place is highly recommended for families looking for a unique and enjoyable activity. We'll definitely be back!Written 4 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- HINA WIslamabad, Pakistan7,348 contributionsThe Union of Artists of Azerbaijan is public organisation. It brings together professional artists, art critics and creative individuals of the country. It was established in 1932. Local and international and Islamic exhibitions are held here to promote all forms of art. You can find Iranian, Turkish, Moldovian and Azeri paintings and sculptures here. While we were there we saw a “Turan” art exhibition. It is a wonderful association which brings all spheres of art under it’s umbrella.Written 2 February 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
