We’ve been checking in on the progress of this exhibition at our downstairs neighbour Leeds Gallery and are delighted to announce we’ll be co-hosting a friends and bloggers event on Tuesday 14th November.
This extraordinary exhibition covers the remarkable history of British illustration of the last century and includes original works by household names such as Arthur Rackham, E H Shepard, William Heath Robinson, The Walt Disney Studio, Ronald Searle, Quentin Blake and Oliver Jeffers.
The Illustrators is presented in association with the Chris Beetles Gallery in London. Chris Beetles has championed the innovative world of illustration for the last thirty-five years, producing outstanding annual exhibitions and museum quality catalogues which have stimulated this formerly overlooked area of collectable art. Carefully selected from their extensive collection these works are being shown in Leeds for the first time.
All the works are for sale.
A selection of books are available including signed, first edition and out of print titles. Please contact the gallery for more information.
There will be events and readings in the gallery and around Leeds throughout November and December to coincide with this exhibition. Watch this space…
