Group show

29 June - 30 September 2012

This major exhibition explores the instinctive human desire to fly from the classical era to the modern day. Starting with the imaginations of Leonardo da Vinci and Francisco Goya and ending with space travel, satellite images and everyday air travel, it promises to be an exciting exploration of creative responses to flight.

Flight and the Artistic Imagination includes paintings, sculptures, photographs, drawings, prints and videos by artists such as Henri Matisse, Paul Nash, Peter Lanyon, Mark Wallinger, Dryden Goodwin, Hiraki Sawa and Layla Curtis.
