Administrative / biographical background:

The original Tate Gallery, at Millbank in London, opened in 1897 on the site of the former Millbank Penitentiary. Its official name was the National Gallery of British Art, but it became popularly known as the Tate Gallery after its founder Sir Henry Tate. This name was officially adopted in 1932.

Tate became wholly independent from the National Gallery in 1955 and in 1992 was accorded corporate status by the Museums and Galleries Act 1992, which invested all property, rights and liabilities in the Board. In 2000, what was the Tate Gallery became Tate, a family of four galleries: Tate Britain, London, Tate Liverpool (founded 1988), Tate St Ives, Cornwall (founded 1993) and Tate Modern, London (founded 2000), with a complementary website, Tate Online (created 1998).
