THE BRITISH IN INDIA
A narrative of human adventure, subjugation and exchange by Tony Phillips 

FREE ENTRY

A series of 90 pen-and ink drawings by Tony Phillips which highlight a range of issues connected to the domination of the Indian subcontinent by the British; the subsequent fusion of cultures, and the post-Independence heritage of this adventure.

For 5 years during the 1990s Shropshire was involved in a youth arts exchange programme with Punjab in northern India. Over a hundred young people from both countries, and numerous artists from all disciplines forged cultural ties and long-lasting friendships. Tony Phillips' love of India is a direct result of his involvement in that programme.

Exhibitions are regularly extended to the Chapel Bar, located on Stalls level.
