York Art Gallery

Description

York Art Gallery underwent a major redevelopment prior to its grand reopening on August 1 2015.

We have increased the gallery’s display space by 60% by creating a new first-floor gallery in the space above the Main Gallery on the ground floor. We have created an entirely new gallery above the existing South Gallery and expanded into the rooms next door to the gallery, formerly occupied by the City Archives.

York Art Gallery’s collection of paintings spans more than 600 years and works range from 14th century Italian panels and 17th century Dutch masterpieces to Victorian narrative paintings and 20th century works by LS Lowry and David Hockney.

Our collection of British studio ceramics is one of the most important in the UK. These are displayed in the Centre of Ceramic Art. Containing the work of over 600 artists and in excess of 5,500 objects.
