Gallery Visit - Research and development - The British Art Show - 8, Leeds.

I took a day out today from writing my essay, to visit the British Art Show that has been posted at the Leeds art gallery for the past few months. It was well worth the visit, as it provided me with a window onto this exhibition (British Art Show 8) that is travelling through the UK, displaying in their own words "an overview of some of the most exciting contemporary art produced in the UK".

For the purposes of this blog, all credits are given to all of the artists that have made this exhibition possible and I have attempted to copy a list of their names below.

The following pictures provide a sample of some of the works that engaged my imagination, and whilst I would have liked to have specifically included all of the contributors, both space and time within this blog preclude me from doing so.
