Tim Shaw Casting a Dark Deemocracy Barbed wire, plastic, oil and sand (click here for further information)		Project One: ICONS POP & POST POP 1960 - 2008 20th September – 11th October 2008 Click here In association with the artists Richard McTague and Jon Kendall of redhouseoriginals From modest beginnings the initial idea of creating an exhibition reflecting current interest in contemporary Urban art evolved into a much larger, inspired project involving work from the original innovators of POP art such as Gerald Laing and Peter Blake, through to David Mach and Julian Opie. International artists will feature prominently with Charles Lutz from Brooklyn, Blek Le Rat and Space Invader from France and Mimmo Rotella from Italy. The crossover between those working with music and art has also become a major aspect of the exhibition, with early original Sex Pistols artwork from Jamie Reid, original paintings by Goldie, and the inspired artwork of James Cauty formerly of the KLF. Live music will also featured in ICONS, with The Prelude, one of the most exciting and energetic bands to have emerged from Northern Ireland in the past decade agreeing to participate in the celebrations.

Joash Woodrow Landscapes 17th November- 19th January 2008 (Click here for further information)		JOASH WOODROW Leeds Metropolitan University 19th October - 14th November 2007 A major retrospective exhibition of paintings, drawings and sculpture, to celebrate the centenary anniversary of the University. A review of the Joash Woodrow 'Landscapes' exhibition appeared in the Financial Times, Saturday 1st December 2007 - 'Portrait of a Lost Artist' , by The Financial Times chief art critic Jackie Wullschlager "...Joash Woodrow is the genius of late 20th century British art of whom almost no one has heard." "Woodrows transformation of banality is as lyrical as Chagalls." "That painterly intensity and high seriousnes links Woodrow to his Jewish contemporaries Kossoff, Auerbach, and Freud; what he now needs is a serious London exhibition to unravel the character and scope of his achievement."

		Christopher Wood The Artists Collection October - December 2004 Painted over the past ten years, most of the 25 paintings in this exhibition were held by the artists as key reference works: landmarks in the development of his art. On a Chris Wood painting Bright sun drives us into shadows into cells of meditation by hill or ocean groping through the dizzying, black measurelessness of caves that are also cave- metaphors of our inner selves. There, we are as the old Greeks saw us: the shadows of unseen gods, shadows thrown by the light of what we fear, the cave door and the horizon; our backs to the news that the troops are coming, that Humvees pour on the land and earth turns red. Glyn Hughes August 2004
