Ideas for Independent Visits this summer :


Ideas for Independent Visits this summer :


People's History Musuem This is a great museum - especially if you are looing at the protest & propaganda question. There are many interactive exhibits & its free !



Wyndham Lewis at the Imperial War Musuem North - the father of Vorticism , this is a huge retrospective of his work which would be relevant to graphics , textiles, fine art & 3D design.



True Faith at Manchester Gallery is an exhibition charting the Band New Order (Joy Division) & the wealth of visual art that their music inspired... featuring work by John Baldessari, Barbara Kruger, Lawrence Weiner, Jonathan Demme, Robert Longo, Raf Simons and Kathryn Bigelow.




Raqib Shaw at the Whitworth
Shaw’s opulent paintings of fantastical worlds are combined with historic textiles, furniture and drawings from the Whitworth collection. The exhibition takes the form of an installation, drawing on influences of renaissance and baroque imagery, combined with theatrical extravagance, nature and poetry, to echo the mythic space Shaw creates in his paintings.
A great inspiration for Textiles, graphic & fine art.


John Rylands Library  This has an exhibition which looks at ordinary objects (shoes, bags, a school tie from Westhill, scissors..) & looks at how they can become sentimental in our lives...
