Now You See Me
Featuring figurative work ranging from 16th Century portraiture to contemporary painting and photography, this eclectic exhibition takes a look at representations of people in the Harrogate Art Collection. Raising questions about identity and perception, we look at how image making can frame our ideas about people and the world around us.
Encounter one of the oldest works in the collection, a portrait of Sir Arthur Slingsby from the late 16th Century, and meet our newest acquisition, an atmospheric photographic work by Irish artist Dorothy Cross. As a tribute to the late local Harrogate historian Malcolm Neesam, the exhibition includes a poignant portrait by Harrogate-based artist Matthew Wyatt.
