Temple Newsam "wonderwall - 300 years or wallpaper"




The exhibition showed a large collection of wallpapers and textile pieces ranging from the 18th to the 20th century, all kindly donated by the late Roger Warner.
It was his unusual interest in wallpaper which made him famous, collecting small fragments, admiring then for there historic interest.

Catherine Bertola.
A speacial commission by artist Catherine Bertola was partiularly impressive, her interests lie in the hidden histories of rooms.she explores historical context and probes the question 'what if walls could talk?'
