Our Relaxed Viewings are dedicated to visitors who would benefit from a more informal approach to noise and movement in the space.

The Relaxed Viewings are with a lower visitor capacity, and support visitors who would feel more comfortable knowing that they can enter and exit freely.

The first UK retrospective of the iconic Colombian artist, whose bold work explores the power and impact of the images we encounter every day.

Bringing together over 150 artworks, this major exhibition explores Beatriz González’s influential practice from the 1960s to now.

From her monumental paintings to repurposed furniture, wallpaper and installations, González draws from found images, reproductions of Western art, and newspaper clippings. In her distinctive graphic style and vivid palette, she transforms these images, playfully questioning ideas of taste, critiquing power structures, bearing witness to violence and offering moving reflections on grief, displacement and community.
