Into The Open Exhibition

Into The Open Exhibition

The "Into the Open" Exhibition was an exhibition of art by black artists displayed at various venues in the United Kingdom in 1984.

This exhibition was the first major survey by a municipal gallery of contemporary work by black artists in Britain. It was curated, at the invitation of Sheffield City Arts Department, by two people closely involved with black artists in Britain: Lubiana Himid and Pogus Caesar. Their stated aim was to give an indication of the range and richness of art made by contemporary Afro Caribbean artists.

The exhibition toured in the United Kingdom in 1984, appearing at three venues: the Mappin Art Gallery in Sheffield, the
Castle Museum in Nottingham, and the Newcastle Media Workshops in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. It was organized by the Sheffield Arts Department and was subsidised by the Arts Council of Great Britain.
