Nothing Lasts Forever: Peter Mitchell

Join Peter Mitchell in a Gallery tour of his exhibition as he reflects on his long rooted connection with the city of Leeds.

Peter Mitchell is widely regarded as one of the most important early colour photographers of the 20th century. He became best known for his photographic chronicles of Leeds, including a series of striking photographs of the city through the 1970s and 1980s. This exhibition marks a return to Leeds Art Gallery for Mitchell who had his first exhibition there in 1975. Some works are displayed for the first time from his personal collection.

The Wrangthorn Enquirer - ‘News From Now and Here’

At a time when newspapers are disappearing or are contaminated with the need to sell advertising space through clickbait articles, pop-up adverts for online services and a public lust for soundbytes - Hyde Park Art Club are delighted to present a durational Summer Season of free press and roaming ideas as antidote, delivered at Hyde Park Book Club by The Wrangthorn Enquirer.

These are some of the guiding principles of The Wrangthorn Enquirer, the radical community press that will infiltrate and document Hyde Park Book Club and its surroundings this summer.

Fragment and Form: Emii Alrai, Mónica Mays, Dominique White

For centuries, sculpture has been a site of encounter between history, myth and materials. Fragment and Form continues this by bringing together three contemporary artists Emii Alrai (b. 1993), Mónica Mays (b. 1990), Dominique White (b. 1993) in an exhibition that explores heritage, displacement and the ways in which personal and collective histories are preserved, marginalised and contested through materiality.
