This new exhibition explores the concept of the male gaze in twentieth-century illustration. Cătălina Zlotea, a PhD researcher, analyses the work of the prolific mid-century British illustrator Charles Mozley (1914–1991) through a contemporary lens. At a moment when gender dynamics still define a perpetual cycle of inequality, this show explores how feminine stereotypes have been constructed and perpetuated in British visual culture.

The exhibition is open until 9 September, on weekdays from 10 am to 5 pm. 
Closed bank holidays.

Please RSVP before 17 July: c.c.zlotea@pgr.reading.ac.uk
