The Illustrators
14 November 2011 – 3 January 2012
This extraordinary exhibition covers the remarkable history of British illustration over 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 works in this exhibition are for sale.
A selection of books are available including signed, first edition and out of print titles illustrated by many of the featured artists.
Events and readings at the gallery and around Leeds will take place throughout November and December, please contact the gallery for more information or check for updates on Twitter.
