See the UK premiere of the short film The Smithsons, 2005 by Paris-born and Berlin-based artist Cyprien Gaillard, together with Kelley Walker’s mixed-media installation.

It’s the first in our new programme of changing exhibitions for the ground-floor Manchester Gallery. The exhibition explores how two significant contemporary artworks reflect and relate to Manchester and the city’s early 1980s music scene.

Manchester Art Gallery is one of the region’s most popular cultural destinations, attracting over 400,000 visits each year. Between 1998 and 2002, a £35million refurbishment and expansion programme transformed the venue into a world-class gallery for Manchester. Since then, Manchester Art Gallery has won many awards and has developed a national reputation for its high quality, audience focused services.
