Overview

Prepare to be amazed by a dozen examples of groundbreaking contemporary art by current and future global art stars. This wondrous exhibition includes a lifesize Indian elephant with skin made entirely of bindis, and fibreglass figures inspired by kung fu fight scenes from The Matrix. Known as the Saatchi of the North, Frank Cohen is one of the most important art collectors in the UK today. This is an exceptional opportunity to see some of the most exciting works from his private collection, many of which have rarely been shown in public.
