The main art exibitions cover the whole range of the visual arts, from classical painting to avant-garde sculpture, and provide opportunities for display by local, national, and international artists. They typically change every six weeks, and are housed in the exhibition space and main hall. A selection of art is for sale in the Ucheldre Kitchen and the shop.

![]() Easter In Art The story of Christ’s
death and resurrection has dominated western culture for the past 2000 years.
It is perhaps the most significant historical event of all time, as recounted
by the gospels but, equally, as
depicted by the
greatest artists in history. From the triumphant to the savage, the ethereal to
the tactile, some of western civilization’s greatest artworks focus on this
pivotal moment. This beautifully crafted film explores the Easter story as
depicted in art, from the time of the early Christians to the present day. Shot
on location in Jerusalem, United States and throughout Europe, the film
explores the different ways artists have depicted the Easter story through the
ages and thus depicts the history of us all. 1hr 25

![]() Frida Kahlo This highly engaging film takes us on a journey through the life of one of the most prevalent female icons: Frida Kahlo. She was a prolific self-portraitist, using the canvas as a mirror through all stages of her turbulent and, at times, tragic life. Guided with interview, commentary and Frida’s own words, EXHIBITION ON SCREEN uncovers that this, however, was not a life defined by tragedy. Featuring key exhibitions and interviews with world-renowned Kahlo curators, EXHIBITION ON SCREEN explores the extraordinary symbolism and themes in these personal canvases to seek a deeper understanding of the real Frida Kahlo. Using cinema to take an up-close and intimate look at her works we examine how great an artist she can be considered. Displaying a treasure trove of colour and a feast of vibrancy on screen, this personal and intimate film offers privileged access to her works and highlights the source of her feverish creativity, her resilience and her unmatched lust for life, men, women, politics and her cultural heritage. We might think we already know Frida Kahlo – the image of floral crowns, big brows and folk style clothing have made her a muse to generations – but what lies beneath the surface of this intensely passionate woman? “I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality” Frida Kahlo £10, £8 concessions/gostyngiadau, £4
