Out of this World: the art of Josh Kirby is on there at the mo
Explore a colourful world teeming with other-worldly characters, creatures, fantasy cities and landscapes in 'Out of this World: the art of Josh Kirby' - the first major retrospective of the Liverpool-born artist.
This exhibition spans Kirby's artistic career from his early days as a freelance artist to his famous cover illustrations for Terry Pratchett's Discworld and Eric/Faust fantasy books.
Kirby’s work has adorned the covers of some of the most iconic science fiction and fantasy novels, as well as famous film posters such as Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and Monty Python's Life of Brian. The exhibition displays his best-known work alongside the less familiar, including his stylish illustrations for Corgi and Panther publishers in the 1950s and 60s. It provides a unique opportunity to view Kirby's often highly complex paintings un-cropped and in their original format.

Did anyone else feel that Mel Gibson's remake of the classic Life of Brian wasn't anywhere near as funny as the original?
