Another busy week with another @artukdotorg #OnlineArtExchange, this time it's all about industry 🏭 You can see the work of photographer William Blake (1874-1957) at @potteriesmuseum in their exhibition Fresh Air For The Potteries. We've picked this sculpture of a worker in the pottery industry, 'Kate', by Graham Ibbeson (1996) on Potter's Close in Chesterfield. Credit: @grahamibbeson_art Image description: A bronze sculpture of a middle aged woman sits on a concrete bench, holding a jug with a broken handle. Two finished jugs are on either side of her. The woman, Kate, wears a simple work dress and apron with her sleeves rolled up, and her shoulder length hair is swept back with an Alice band. She stares at the jug critically, as though working out how to fix it #grahamibbeson #grahamibbesonsculptor #artuk #onlineartexchange #potteriesmuseum #williamblakephotographer #industry #photography #sculpture #bronzesculpture #chesterfield #pearsonspottery #pottery #potter #derbyshire #midlamds #industrialmidlands #20thcentury #20thcenturyart #armitt #armittmuseum #armittlibrary #ambleside #cumbria #lakedistrict

The land behind Bethesda Chapel was originally the church yard, this was redeveloped into Bethesda Gardens, a public walkway linking the Potteries Museum to The Victoria Hall. 'Mother and Child' by Anthony Beetlestone was installed as part of that re-development. The sculpture signifies new life and represents an optimistic view of regeneration and hope for the area. #hanley #stoke #burslem #longton #tunstall #fenton #sot #stokeontrent #staffordshire #lifeinstoke #welovestoke #localhistory #potteries #potteriesmuseum #citycentre #sculpture #mother #mumandbaby
Yesterday we took a visit to the our local museum, @potteriesmuseum They currently have a great Carboniferous Monsters exhibit, showing prehistoric creatures from 100 million years before the dinosaurs! We were unaware that this was on and went to the museum upon Jude’s request to see the animals so this was a great surprise! Jude loves all things dinosaurs so it was a perfect addition to our trip. We paid £6 entry and Jude was free (under 3’s) and the exhibit will be in the museum until June 2nd. If you are local or visiting nearby, I definitely recommended a visit! Also whilst on our visit, we went to see the Spitfire, which Jude was adamant he wanted to get in to and spotted some butterflies linked to our learning earlier in the week. Oh and I also got swindled into buying this dino dig kit, so lots of mess was made when we got home! #potteriesmuseum #carboniferousmonsters #prehistoric #dinosaurlover #stokeontrent #museumvisit #earlyyears #earlyyearslearning #toddleradventures #toddlerdayout #toddlermum #toddlermumuk

THE POTTERIES MUSEUM & ART GALLERY 📍 Bethesda Street, Hanley, Stoke-Trent, ST1 3DW There’s been lots on at the @potteriesmuseum over the Easter holidays and last week we went along when they had dinosaur appearances on. It’s a lovely museum full of local history, lots of interactive exhibits which are great for kids and both my 6 year old and 3 year old enjoy our visits whenever we go. It’s a great, free/low cost way to spend a few hours. 🏛️ entry is free but there is a donations box at the entrance. 🏛️ Open Wednesday -Saturday 10am -5pm and Sundays 11am-4pm. They sometimes open for an extra day in school holidays. 🏛️ Displays include a natural science section (a firm favourite for both of mine), a secret garden, an archeology section, local history section, an art gallery, ceramics and the spitfire gallery. The refurbished Spitfire is housed in a glass fronted extension and includes displays detailing the aircrafts engine and history, it’s a really great part of the museum. 🏛️ Onsite cafe with a nice lunch menu and a counter full of cakes and treats. There’s also a picnic area within the cafe seating where you’re welcome to eat your own food. 🏛️ Just around the corner is Hanley library, we usually combine with a trip to both. 🏛️ We parked on Tesco which is across the road and you get 3 hours free parking. John Street carpark or Brakes carpark are the nearest pay and displays. 🏛️ There’s a really lovely gift shop in the foyer selling lots of unique items inspired by the collections in the museum. 🏛️ Until 2 June 24 they have on a ‘Carboniferous Monsters - 100 years before the dinosaurs’ exhibition. This costs £6 per adult, £3 per child and under 5’s are free. My 6 year old likes prehistoric type stuff so found it interesting - but we didn’t spend very long in this bit at all. I’ll add a few pics of this to my stories for anyone interested. —————————————————————— #stokeontrent #staffordshire #lovewhereyoulive #activitieswithkids #spitfire #visitstoke #museum @sotcitycouncil #potteriesmuseum #mystokestory #enjoystaffordshire #daysoutwithkids #madeinstoke

🥫🧦 🕸️ . Through all of the health difficulties of the past few weeks, I saw recently on the local news that some pieces from the Tate Modern were going to be touring with @art.explora.uk . And through some divine intervention…it was that very week it would be literally down the road from us! Then I was absolutely stunned to be able to tick 4 artists off my bucket list!! . Andy Warhol ✅ I actually have his Campbell rendition tattooed on me! I was euphoric to see this piece and in my nearest Gallery! It has been a piece I’ve wanted to see for years! Definitely in my top 10 to see…and I’m still processing that I’ve ACTUALLY seen it in action! Even Mole asked “is this the genuine piece” because he was stunned too! I think my awe was contagious 👀 . Dorothea Tanning ✅ I have slowly developed an obsession with Tannings work…so to be able to see one completely unexpected made me squeal…so I apologise on behalf of other visitors for that outburst! . Roy Lichtenstein ✅ I have an absolute fascination with his minimalist approach but its precision to the piece and how everything looks deliberate and perfect!! I’m obsessed! . David Hockney ✅ I have become more obsessed since reading Alan Rickman’s autobiography and realising their influence with one another and friendship! And this piece was a digital process so it was a privilege to see his skills in action 🤩 . #art #stokeontrent #potteriesmuseum #potteriesartgallery #mobilemuseum #tatemodern #tatemodernmuseum #tatemoderngallery #staffordshire #hanley #andywarhol #bucketlist #roylichtenstein #dorotheatanning #davidhockney #artlover #artgallery #artgalleries

Here is a portrait of a man who had no idea that one day, his legacy would be confused with rainbows, leprechauns, and pots of gold. ☘️🌈 Some interesting tidbits about St. Patrick’s Day: ☘️ St. Patrick wasn’t actually Irish. He was born in Great Britain, but through a dramatic turn of events—involving his abduction, captivity, escape, and eventual return—St. Patrick wound up dedicating his life to converting the Irish to Christianity. ☘️ He was never actually recognized as a saint by the Catholic Church, but that’s because he was born before the official canonization process began. Happy St. Patrick’s Day from @artukdotorg and #BloombergConnects! — 🖼️: William Orpen. St Patrick, undated. Oil on canvas.

Our 1st History Walk of the year. They are incredibly popular. We look forward to welcoming you. The walk is around 45 minutes in length with stop offs at points of interest.

“The largest recent development at The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery in Stoke-on-Trent, UK, involved the construction of a new wing dedicated to showcasing a World War II Spitfire, an important component of the museum’s collection telling the story of the local area’s connection to the Spitfire’s development!” 🛩️ To realise this vision, the museum sought to create a visually impactful display that would complement the balcony’s curvature in the new gallery, whilst ensuring long-term adaptability. The aim was to deliver a display that matched the Spitfire’s impact, aligning with a large projection on the gallery wall opposite the balcony, depicting Spitfires in flight. It was crucial to seamlessly integrate the movement of the projection into the showcases. 🏛️ @potteriesmuseum 📷 The Potteries Museums & Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent City Council © #PotteriesMuseum #StokeonTrent #UK #Spitfire #Museum #Display #Gallery #MeyvaertCustom #Design #TechnicalExpertise #Meyvaert #Present #Preserve #Protect #Showcases

Inside the Staffordshire hoard were the remanence of a spectacular helmet. This helmet includes foil images of warriors which are strikingly similar to those found on the Sutton Hoo helmet and other examples from across the North Sea world. One of the remarkable features of this kingly helmet is its apparent crest, which occurs in no other known helmet of the age. The inspiration for this crest has been theorized to come from those worn by Roman Centurion’s. At the time of Penda there was a king who was heavily influenced by Rome based on what we know from both historical records and archaeological finds; he was King Edwin. Bede recorded that when Edwin, “walked anywhere along the streets, that sort of banner which the Roman’s call ‘Tufa’ and the English call ‘Thuuf’ was in like manner borne before him”. King Edwin’s defeat was one of King Penda’s first great successes. #heathen #pagan #bookstagram #sooke #victoriabc #staffordshire #staffordshirepotteries #penda #potteriesmuseum

In 2009 an out of work coffin maker spent £2.50 on a used metal detector. On his first foray he headed out to a field in Staffordshire. He ended up finding a hoard of gold comprised of 4600 objects . The hoard included 11lbs of Gold and 3lbs of silver. The vast treasure earned the finder and land owner £3.2 million. #heathen #bookstagram #mercia #england #potteriesmuseum
