PUBLICLY-owned 20th Century prints are on show in Leigh alongside a national touring Goya exhibition.
A display, including work by David Hockney and Andy Warhol, will sit alongside "Goya: The Disparates" to March 14 in the Turnpike Gallery.
TheTurnpike Collection on show was originally part of the library's picture loan scheme. The scheme is no longer running and the prints are rarely seen in public.
, but this exhibition will give visitors the chance to take a close look at works by established British artists from the 50s to the 70s including William Scott, Patrick Caulfield, Paule Vezelay and Anthony Gross.
The Spanish painter and etcher Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was in his seventies and recovering from a serious illness when he made his last series of etchings --The Disparates.
The etchings are a savage satirical attack on the political and social customs of his time.
Eighteen prints make up this exhibition organised by the Hayward Gallery.
Admission is free and opening hours are Monday, Thursday and Friday 9.30am to 5.30pm, Tuesday 10am to 5.30pm, Wednesday 9.30am to 5pm and Saturday 10am to 3pm.
