Our next major exhibition offers a snapshot of British art of the last century. Click here to see images from the exhibition.

It will bring together works acquired by galleries across Yorkshire with the support of the Contemporary Art Society.

Paintings, sculptures and photography from a wide range of well known British arts will be featured.

Pioneers of British Modernism such as David Bomberg, William Roberts and Henry Moore will be displayed alongside all types of art up to the Young British Artists including Sarah Lucas, Gillian Wearing and Tacita Dean.
