Tour this exhibition about the lives and the relationships between the artists, collectors and curators who made the Whitworth with Curator Bryony Bond
As so many of our opening exhibitions demonstrate, collections are created by people: the people who acquired and then presented collections to the institution. This exhibition is brought to life by some of these people and explores the relationships between them, from Francis Bacon’s portrait of his friend Lucian Freud to a self-portrait of Adolf Wölfli made in a mental asylum near Berne and Sir Stanley Spencer’s drawing of Margaret Pilkington, honorary director of the Whitworth for over 20 years and the first female director of a major UK gallery.
