Huddersfield Art Gallery

Kirklees / Reino Unido

The Huddersfield Art Gallery is an art gallery in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, northern England. The gallery is run by Kirklees Council who own "Figure Study II", the first painting by Francis Bacon to enter a public art gallery in the UK. It was purchased by the Contemporary Art Society in 1946 and offered to Kirklees Council in 1952, after it was rejected by Tate which, at the time, had felt Bacon not to have been an important artist. The gallery is currently closed for refurbishment and will be reopening in 2021.
