Brick by Brick – International LEGO® Brick Art

Open daily @ Ferens Art Gallery, Hull City Centre

This popular exhibition is finally in Hull and brings together work by international artists, designers and photographers who use LEGO® bricks as their medium or inspiration.

The exhibition includes a range of stunning 2D and 3D work in a variety of scales, from jewellery to sculpture.
