Artwork of the Month 2010 |  |
|
|
||
 Every month the Museum highlights a different piece as its ‘Artwork of the Month’.The purpose of this programme is to allow visitors to focus on the details surrounding one particular artwork. Very often we dash around museums and galleries trying to take everything in, when in-fact we may get more out of our visit by just concentrating on a few works at a time. Each month the chosen artwork helps us to focus on a different aspect of art or art history, as a single piece of art can hold many stories. These stories could relate to a particular artist, genre, decade, artistic movement, etc. The options are vast. Within this programme we also hope to exhibit the work of local or locally based artists and students, which will provide us with an opportunity to show contemporary work outside of our collection. |
