Establishes stylish gallery on board (8)
I believe the answer is:
instates
'establishes' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'stylish gallery on board' is the wordplay.
'stylish' becomes 'in'.
'gallery' becomes 'tate' (Tate Modern, Tate Britain etc).
'on' is an insertion indicator.
'board' becomes 'ss' (I've seen this in other clues).
'tate' going into 'ss' is 'states'.
'in'+'states'='INSTATES'
I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
