| Joseph Wright of Derby: Life on Paper, an exhibition exploring the life and work of one of Britain’s best loved artists, returns to the Museum and Art Gallery this month. Explore the role of drawing within the story of Wright’s life through 50 works on paper from Derby Museums’ collection. Rarely before seen outside Derby, they include early works made in training to remarkable ‘one-off’ productions. This popular exhibition reveals the much-loved artist at his most experimental and exuberant, as well as his most vulnerable and human.
Open at the Museum and Art Gallery from 14 March . |
