    From 13 April 2008
    Classical Fantasies:
    The Art of South Italy


    The re-discovery of Pompeii in 1748 and the publication of Johann Winckelmann’s The History of Ancient Art in 1764 defined art history and archaeology as we know them today. This reawakening of the Classical Ideal (or Neo-Classicism) was to influence art, literature, architecture, furniture and fashion design as well as people such as Josiah Wedgwood and Goethe.

    Art Gallery Exhibition:
    Cuts Both Ways
    'Cuts both ways' explores the phenomenon of the worldwide development of woodcuts and linocuts from the 1920s to 1940s.
