Interesting blog by Ruth about her disappointment and delight in our current exhibitions ‘Hockney: Printmaker’ and ‘Shafts of Light’. Why not come and see for yourself and tell us about your own personal emotional engagement with the clean lines and varied themes of Hockney’s prints and, in stark contrast, the deep, evocative images of a once powerful workforce in the Great Northern Coalfield. ‘Shafts of Light’ ends Sunday 21st September and ‘Hockney Printmaker’ ends Sunday 28th September.
