WONDER - Where Reality and Imaginary Collide
Herbert Art Gallery & Museum
29 June - 15 September 2019
A journey into enchanting new worlds, unexpected environments & dreamlike realities.
Inspired by the museum’s collection and the city of Coventry, 'Wonder' takes you beyond gallery walls with immersive fun for visitors of all ages. From urban landscapes to re-imagined cartoon characters, a light pavilion and creatures brought to life by augmented reality, be prepared for unexpected and unimaginable wonders!
Presenting largely new works and commissions by seven artists from the West Midlands and UK, visitors are taken on a journey through space, time and media, to explore how art can excite the imagination whilst still being a document of the here and now.
The exhibition was curated by Dr Rachel Marsden and features work by Antonio Roberts, Ben Javens, Davy & Kristin McGuire, Edie Jo Murray, Julia Snowdin and Lucy McLauchlan.
