Taking the visual arts into public spaces and
places Gallery II extends beyond the boundaries of the arts
venue into public spaces and places and plays a key role in the
cultural life of the campus and the city, through its exhibitions,
events, partnership projects and artist residencies. We work to
create opportunities for artists to make new work and seek to
create innovative and flexible ways in which they can interact with
the institution, the district and the wider world.
Connecting the local to the global
In light of its academic situation, Gallery II's visual arts
policy is committed to promoting excellence, research and education
and aims to reflect the University and the City's diverse
communities, by programming work that has relevance to the campus,
the district and our global links and which explores the unique
contribution that the visual arts can make to our understanding of
contemporary life.
