The Estorick Collection was formed by Eric Estorick (1913-1993)
and his wife Salome (1920-1989) during the 1950s. The Canonbury
Square building was refurbished to house the Collection and opened
to the public in 1998.
Nowhere else in Britain can visitors see in such profusion
paintings by Futurism's main protagonists: Giacomo Balla, Umberto
Boccioni, Carlo Carrà, Luigi Russolo and Gino Severini. The
Collection also includes works by Giorgio de Chirico, Amedeo
Modigliani and Giorgio Morandi.
