Please join us for the Fine Art Level 1 Project Space exhibition and open studios at the University of Leeds. For one night only!

Level 1 artists on the BA Fine Art, BA Fine Art with Contemporary Cultural Theory and BA Fine Art with History of Art courses will show new work and work in progress that has emerged through the studio research groups they formed this semester.

On the ground floor in Project Space, there will be a single work by each artist. Upstairs on the second floor, the Level 1 studios will be open.

Darktown Comes to Print Town - Exhibition Launch

Join us in welcoming the artist Jonny Hannah to Otley. 

His new exhibition of screen prints, posters and artworks opens with an evening of refreshments and Jonny on the decks playing the records that inspire his eclectic artwork. 

Taking his influences from a range of sources, Jonny has explored a unique mix of folk tales, jazz, Americana and pop culture to create a personal vision of the world.

Loops

Find out what happens when three textile artists from the Netherlands meet three textile artists from Yorkshire.

Loops is a large-scale collaborative artwork by six talented artists centred around the theme of cycles, circles and continuums. Many months in the making and many miles apart, this is a truly unique celebration of international collaboration and the lasting allure of textiles.

The gallery is open Tuesday-Saturday 10-4, Sunday 12-4 and closed on Mondays. 

Open Archive: Roger Ackling

After artist Roger Ackling (1947–2014) died, his archive was gifted to the Archive of Sculptors' Papers, so it is now in Leeds Museums and Galleries' collection, housed at Henry Moore Institute.

Some of this rich collection is currently on display in the exhibition SUNLIGHT: Roger Ackling, on display at Henry Moore Institute until 22 June 2025.

As it's one of our largest collections, we can't fit everything we've got into the galleries, so instead we're giving you the opportunity to take a closer look and get hands-on with these fascinating materials.
