Tune in to Sheffield Museums' Facebook page on 11 August at 1pm for our next virtual Tour!

Join Ned McConnell, exhibition curator from the Roberts Institute of Art, for a virtual introduction to the latest exhibition to open at the Millennium Gallery, Earthbound: Contemporary Landscape from the Roberts Institute of Art.

Earthbound brings together works from the David and Indrė Roberts Collection, alongside examples from Sheffield’s own visual art collection, to investigate our relationship with our environment. The works on display span land art, landscape paintings, video installation, sculpture and photography, by contemporary artists including Helen Chadwick, Richard Long, Dan Holdsworth, Miroslaw Balka, Theaster Gates and Berlinde De Bruyckere.

If you can’t make the live broadcast, the video will be available to watch later via Sheffield Museums' website.
