The Raconteurs Arena


3rd May - 28th June

View Gallery

The Raconteurs Arena is an exhibition that celebrates the story-telling of Bristol, from real-life drama to myths and fables. We have selected stories that we find intriguing, humorous, and bizarre. The history of the city and surrounding areas is steeped in magical stories that capture the imagination of some of our most creative artists. All the work for this exhibition is commissioned by View and we’ve challenged 10 artists to express themselves, inspired by one or more of the amazing tales. We are delighted to discover that these most creative of artists have responded magnificently in their own unique way.
