Going to art galleries will help you understand something about the world that you live in and something about yourself. Especially, modern art focuses on a lot of social issues and opens many important discussions. That’s why everyone should go to an art gallery at least once in their life.
On a personal note, i’d recommend you to go to art galleries for the first time by yourself (so, you can really get into thinking what it means to you from your life experience) and for the second with a guide that knows the story behind the picture (especially, if you go to modern art galleries where some artwork may seem a little bit confusing). It’s ok to go for the first time with a guide, but after that it’s a bit harder to form your own thoughts about the artwork.

You are right because modern art is underappreciated because more focus is given to the artists that have passed away.
I have not been to one in many years, not convenient where I live.
I live in a village, so I go whenever I am able to. 🙂
Going to art galleries would make a great hobby. I wish I had more time and a lot closer for me to go to.
