Youki Hirakawa in ‘From Sky to Sea : Artists & Water’ at Millennium Gallery, Sheffield

Youki Hirakawa is exhibiting ‘Untitled (Tears)’ alongside an incredible selection of contemporary and historical artists including Titian, Paul Cézanne, JMW Turner, David Hockney, Fay Godwin, Walker Evans and Simon Starling among others, in ‘From Sky to Sea: Artists and Water’ at the Millennium Gallery, Sheffield.

From Sky to Sea brings together painting, photography and works on paper to explore artists’ enduring fascination with water and our relationship to it. The displays take visitors on a journey that follows the water cycle – from the rain and snow atop the highest peaks, along the rivers that flow through our towns, cities and countryside, and finally to the sea.

Titian’s striking largescale woodcut The Submersion of Pharaoh’s Army in the Red Sea, 1549 has been newly conserved for the exhibition, and goes on display in Sheffield for the first time since the 1980s.

The exhibition is Co-curated by Paul Swales and continues until 12 March 2023.
