Overview
Let your eyes grow wide, your hearing sharpen and your nerves
tingle as sculpture, painting, photographs, videos and prints bring
your senses roaring to life. From eye-watering op art to the
mind-bending, interactive installation of Luc Peire's
Environment III, this exhibition fizzes with emotion.
Covering the period from the 1960s to the present day, Whizz
Bang Pop includes new acquisitions alongside well-known
favourites. Watch as moving images flicker, lights glow
fluorescent, sculptures burst into motion, artworks lift off walls,
and colours explode and retreat.
