The Burrell Collection reopens today

The Burrell Collection in Glasgow will reopen to the public on March 29 at 10:00 a.m. Tuesday . The museum was completely renovated, and the museum closed on October 23, 2016.

It refers to upcoming events to mark renewal, reunion and reopening.


In 1987, I went to the Burrell Collection as a study visit to the UK to obtain an MBA from the London School of Business. We went to Glasgow to renovate ourselves, to create a new image for the future, as an example of a busy city.

The first impression was amazing. It was set in the wooded forest of Polok Country Park, in a crystal clear space that reveals the collection to visitors. I was amazed when I saw the old glass and architectural elements built in a very modern building.

I remember looking at the collection from the outside, then looking at the tree from the inside.


I remember it was a very messy love museum that had been renovated.
