This is the best most interesting museum / art gallery in Australia (possibly the world) and is reason enough to head down to Tasmania. It houses a fair percentage of the best modern art of the past thirty years and has single-handedly revitalised tourism in Tasmania. It is the love child of an eccentric Tasmanian mega-gambler millionaire. My teenage kids are always asking when we can go back. Everything is amazing, the trip there in the fast ferry, the building carved out of a hill, the exhibits, the use of ipods to navigate the exhibit, the enthusiastic art students everywhere answering questions. Please, please go you will be proud of Tasmania and Australia. It now costs $20 to get in it was free for the first year. I would give it 10 stars if I could
