Acidic, bawdy, grotesque. Heath Robinson’s illustrations for Rabelais explore a dark and dramatic part of his practice, characterised by expressive linework and grim subjects. See them alongside Goya’s Los Caprichos; experimental etchings portraying beasts, scoundrels and a society in ruin.
Alongside a sensational artistic career, Mary V. Wheelhouse was also a fierce suffragette. See her art and activism come together in this retrospective exhibition.
