Exhibition Review: University of Leeds Press

'The Bloomsbury Group shaped more than just paint and fabric, it transformed Virginia Wolf, her writing and English. Neither this exhibition nor any other can display Wolf like an old battered paperback. So take half an hour, pass by Parkinson Court and peak at the intimate lives of the Bloomsbury group'.

Connecting Lives Exhibition Inspires Gallery Workshop

Write Me a Picture: Creative Writing Workshop with Suzannah Evans
Saturday, 3 December 2011, 1.30-4pm

The workshop will use exercises based on 'The Sadler Gift' exhibition and the display 'Connecting Lives: Intimate Artworks of Bloomsbury' to inspire creative writing. The focus of the workshop will be on imagining the lives of the people behind the works of art. What can we know about a collector or an artist from their works of art, and how much can we invent? What will be left behind to tell our own stories?
Suitable for writers with a love of art, artists interested in writing or anyone who is somewhere between the two. Facilitated by Leeds poet Suzannah Evans.

Free workshop, but places are limited so please book your place in advance by e-mailing gallery@leeds.ac.uk, phone (0113) 343 2778, or online.
