Fantastic exhibition of neon art from the 1930s onwards at Blackpool's Grundy Gallery from 1st September to 7th January 2017. Quite a few of these pieces were also in the "Lumiere" show in London in January this year (which I also mentioned on this forum - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/neonixie-l/ky8ikP1iMUk/GM9LBCD7BwAJ).

The exhibition will encompass a wide range of ways in which artists have experimented with light designed to be seen rather than illuminate; whether through text and language, the drawn line or an investigation into its physical and sculptural qualities. Coinciding with the famous 'Illuminations', we will also be displaying rarely seen 1930s designs highlighting Blackpool's pioneering role in the history of neon in the UK.
