Our Latest Exhibition is Telling Tales; Story Scrools from India. Situated in The Godfrey Pilkington Gallery this exhibition is an exciting insight into the ancient tradition of story telling on 'patas' (paintings on scrolls). bright and vibrant the the panels were glued onto cloth for greater strength and flexibility.
Each panel represents a particular sequence in the story. Before television or the internet the patua or story teller would carry these scrolls from village to villave performingfor a small fee. Today these skills are less and less in deman. Exhibtion runs from may 4th to June 3rd - Entrance to this exhibition is free.
