==Description==

An [[art]] '''gallery''' or art museum is a building or [[space]] for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_exhibition exhibition of art], usually [[visual]] art. Museums can be [[public]] or [[private]], but what distinguishes a museum is the ownership of a [[collection]]. [[Paintings]] are the most commonly displayed art objects; however, [[sculpture]], decorative arts, furniture, textiles, [[costume]], [[drawings]], pastels, watercolors, collages, [[prints]], artists' [[books]], [[photograph]]s, and installation art are also regularly shown.  Although primarily concerned with providing a [[space]] to show works of visual art, art galleries are sometimes used to host other artistic [[activities]], such as [[performance]] art, [[music]] concerts, or [[poetry]] readings.
