In this unique exhibition, every artwork from the extensive Rugby Collection is brought together in a rare and powerful moment in the life of the collection.
The exhibition presents over 250 works spanning eight decades of modern and contemporary British art.
With works by internationally recognised figures such as Paula Rego, Lucian Freud, L.S. Lowry, Lubaina Himid and Gillian Wearing, as well as quieter, surprising works from less celebrated artists in their formative periods, this exhibition offers an encounter with a carefully curated collection like no other.
Born in the aftermath of the Second World War, the Rugby Art Collection was shaped not by private wealth but by civic belief. The conviction that art belongs to everyone and has a vital role in public life.
UNVEILED traces post-war optimism, shifting social values and emerging voices – in a collection built on courage and long-term vision rather than fashion or fame.
