Movement of the Month

Movement of the Month is a project started by Hannah using our collection archive. Beginning with the Renaissance and moving right through up to Contemporary and Mixed Media works, she takes pieces from various eras and examines them on our blog and our Instagram account; @WhitworthArt.  So for more, look out for posts tagged with #MovementOfTheMonth and #WhitworthMoTM!
