Manchester After Hours / Museums at Night

Artists, curators and the public: who decides what goes on display? Manchester Art Gallery and Whitworth Director Alistair Hudson and curator Clare Gannaway present their thoughts on the inherited problems that exist in gallery collections and displays and discuss who might get to to decide how gallery exhibitions might be made differently. This discussion was part of the Whose Power on Display? series at Manchester Art Gallery. Background In January 2018, Hylas and the Nymphs by JW Waterhouse was temporarily removed as part of a gallery takeover by gallery staff, users and artists. This was part of a project with artist Sonia Boyce and also was part of the making of an artwork, Six Acts, showing in Boyce’s exhibition until 22 July. The painting was replaced by a series of questions to open debate about issues of gender, race and sexuality representation and ask questions about who decides what is shown and what stories are told in a public gallery.
