About This Event

BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art presents a solo exhibition celebrating the work of the late British artist Milly Thompson, on display throughout the summer and running until 30 August 2026. Known for her playful, incisive and often provocative approach, Thompson's practice spanned painting, collage, text and performance across a distinguished career. As with all of BALTIC's exhibitions, entry is free, making it an easy and rewarding stop for anyone exploring the Gateshead Quayside. The gallery's riverside setting beside the Millennium Bridge and its viewing platforms over the Tyne make a visit worthwhile in its own right. The exhibition sits alongside BALTIC's wider summer programme of contemporary art, offering a thoughtful counterpoint to the region's busier outdoor festivals during the August holidays.
