Paper is often seen as a medium, as opposed to a subject matter of art – but not to the 40-plus artists featured within this Arts Council Collection touring exhibition. Exploring approaches to sculpture, drawing and collage – and featuring Welsh artists alongside names such as Wolfgang Tillmans RA, Roy Lichtenstein and Bridget Riley – On Paper looks at more than mark-making and instead considers how artists have focused on paper in innovative and strange ways. Ty Pawb only opened in April this year – the show reveals its mission to be an internationally acknowledged art centre, while still supporting the local people of Wrexham through socially engaged events, projects and performance.
Ty Pawb, Wrexham, 28 July – 23 September 2018.
