This quiz is brought to you in collaboration with Art UK, the online home for the UK’s public art collections, showing art from more than 3,000 venues and by 45,000 artists. Each day, a different collection on Art UK will set the questions. Today, our questions are set by the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, University of Birmingham. The Barber Institute’s collection, owned by the Henry Barber Trust, is housed in a gem of an art deco building on the leafy university campus. Although modest in size, the collection is of remarkable quality and particularly well-balanced, with works ranging in date from Simone Martini (1320) to Frank Auerbach (1981-82). [Take Quiz]
