Over the past two years the Gallery has continued to attract new audiences, through communications, exhibitions and displays, learning programmes, targeted outreach activities and increased access to the Collection through our partnerships across the UK.

The Gallery attracted 1.76 million visits in 2010/11 and 2.05 million in 2011/12, this was the best annual visitor figure in our history and the first time we have received over two million visits.

The Indian Portrait was a great success, receiving over 139,000 visitors, 82% over the expected visitor figure and Glamour of the attracted over 87,000 visitors, 60% above target.

Enjoyment and satisfaction levels remain high, with 97% rating their visit ‘good’ or ‘excellent’. 92% of visitors said that they would be likely to return in the future and 97% said that they would recommend a visit to the Gallery.

The diversity of the Gallery’s innovative programme continued to reflect our remit to reach the widest possible audience and generate interest in portraiture both nationally and internationally. The range of displays, depth of research, increased digital activity, ongoing cataloguing and breadth of the publishing programme have all promoted portraiture and the Collection. Exhibitions have highlighted the work of lesser known photographers, key figures in British art and thematic and ground-breaking subjects.

Our mission to increase the understanding of portraiture has created new partnerships and strengthened existing ones, including working with the Jeu de Paume, , the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, Curatorial Assistance, Pasadena, and the Museum, Fort Worth, all in relation to the exhibition programme. Partnerships online have included projects with the BBC and the Public Catalogue Foundation.

Exhibition Highlights Camille Silvy, Photographer of Modern Life, 1834–1910, Hoppé Portraits: Society, Studio and Street and Ida Kar: Bohemian Photographer all aimed to increase interest in important but neglected photographers. : Regency Power and Brilliance and The First Actresses: Nell Gwyn to Sarah Siddons both focused on eighteenth-century painting and were well received critically. Both the BP Portrait Award and the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize have continued to achieve high visitor figures and an increased number of submissions from international entrants. Lucian Freud Portraits opened in February 2012 and has attracted large audiences and been widely and critically acclaimed.

The last two years have been challenging but during that time the Gallery has achieved internal financial targets and audience development objectives, as well as attaining good results across the range of performance indicators agreed with the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. The Gallery had to adjust to the more difficult funding climate following the 2010 Comprehensive Spending Review, which resulted in a 15% real cut in resource grant-in-aid over the four financial years up to 2014/15. However, notwithstanding these constraints and the economic climate, the Gallery achieved better results than expected in both years. Indeed, 2011/12 was its most successful year in terms of visitor numbers, and with the success of Lucian Freud Portraits, the Gallery gained a surplus at the year end when it had originally budgeted for a deficit on its operations of over £300,000.

In the current climate it has been a demanding, but nonetheless successful period for the Development team. Corporate Partnership was a vulnerable area in 2010 but 2011 saw an uplift in renewals and new members. A number of new sponsors and trusts have joined our long-term supporters and our individual donors continue to enjoy their association with the Gallery, with the retention rates at all levels remaining high.

Corporate Supporters The Gallery enjoyed the continued support of BP for the Portrait Award and Next Generation as part of the Cultural Olympiad, and Taylor Wessing for the Photographic Portrait Prize. BT’s support for the Road to 2012 project continued, with two displays of Olympic and Paralympic portraits in 2010 and 2011. The Gallery launched Late Shift with investment from FTI Consulting for Thursday and Friday evening events and activities.

The Art Handling Team working The Portrait Restaurant in the Victorian Galleries 25 Improving Services

The Gallery’s commitment to improving services has been demonstrated in a number of practical ways, which have benefited staff, visitors and the Collection. These have included energy-saving initiatives, such as the installation of LED lighting across the second floor galleries and the use of waste heat to produce hot water in the toilets. Building projects have included toilet refurbishments, relocating the cloakroom and replacing the flagpole on the Gallery roof. The service to Members was enhanced by the introduction of Membership card scanning at exhibition entrances, and IT facilities were made more resilient through a partnership with the Imperial War Museum.

Visitor Services An Operational Review of Visitor Services looked at improving staff management, visitor experience and security. The success of this has been demonstrated by the ability of the team to deal pro-actively with the large number of visitors to Lucian Freud Portraits. Systems changes such as enhanced CCTV and the appointment of a new ticketing partner for The Queen: Art and Image have all been supported by Services Team.

Services to Research and Readers The Heinz Archive and Library received 2,922 visitors and 4,582 enquiries during the period and continued to host visits from academic, professional and special interest groups. Use of the web-based archive and library catalogues has steadily increased from 1,000 to 1,200 hits a month. Under the Freedom of Information Act thirty-six requests were handled and thirty-five Parliamentary Questions were answered.

Picturing History: A Portrait Set of Early Kings and Queens display, July – December 2011 46 Financial Review 47

Total incoming resources increased over the two years rising Income 819 258 425 365 1,041 from £14.3 million in 2010/11 to £16.8 million in 2011/12, For operations, acquisitions and capital 1,996 a 17.5% increase. Much of the increase was due to the very Grant-in-aid strong performance of Lucian Freud Portraits which opened 2,148 Activities for generating funds in February 2012. Self-generated income increased as a 2011/12 £000s 7,398 2010/11 £000s 7,577 2,631 percentage of income over the period from 47% in 2010/11 Voluntary income to 56% in 2011/12. Income associated with the exhibition Income from exhibitions, learning and access programme did particularly well in 2011/12, including exhibition 2,736 Sponsorship admissions, retail, publications and Gallery Membership. 3,695 The Gallery attracted record numbers of visitors in 2011/12 Other which also assisted the improvement in self-generated income despite the difficult economic climate. Over the two years the Gallery’s grant-in-aid funding from DCMS fell from £7,577,000 in 2010/11 to £7,398,000 in 2011/12, a 2.4% 2,763 2,441 Expenditure 3,267 3,362 decrease. Furthermore, the Gallery received additional funding Excluding capital and acquisitions 132 of £147,000 from the Strategic Commissioning Fund (jointly but including depreciation 140 607 sponsored by the DCMS and the Department for Education) in 587 Extending and broadening 2010/11, but the funding from this source ceased after that year audiences 2011/12 £000s 2010/11 £000s as a consequence of the continuing public sector funding cuts. Costs of generating voluntary income 6,006 Grant-in-aid per visitor to St Martin’s Place fell over the 6,268 4,261 4,328 Developing the Collection period from £4.31 in 2010/11 to £3.61 in 2011/12, a 16% fall, and lower than the figures achieved in any of the Investment management costs 30 4 previous three years, maintaining the Gallery as very effective Increasing understanding and engagement with the Collection within the museums and galleries sector in terms of this key performance indicator. Governance Fundraising trading: cost of Overall, between the two years, resources expended rose by goods sold and other costs 2.8%, but still under the 2011/12 inflation rate. Costs relating to trading were 12% higher in 2011/12 than 2010/11, as a result of the increased trading activity arising from the exhibition programme. Resources expended on charitable activities were lower across most areas in 2011/12, except again in the case of those activities associated with the exhibition programme. For a full understanding of the Gallery’s financial position, reference should be made to the Annual Report and Accounts for 2010/11 and 2011/12, available on the Gallery’s website www.npg.org.uk. 48 Supporters 49
