The Whitechapel Gallery in London’s East End is entering the final phase of a two-year renovation and expansion. “‘Our timing could not have been better,’ Blazwick said with relief. In 2004, when the economy was still robust, she was able to secure about $5.4 million from the Heritage Lottery Fund for the expansion, seed money that encouraged others to give as well. She said the Whitechapel had raised all but about $735,000 of the nearly $20 million needed.”
