Kettle’s Yard, part of the University of Cambridge, is a leading contemporary gallery and unique house with a remarkable collection of twentieth-century art.
Its founders Jim and Helen Ede believed in art’s ability to transform lives, a vision upheld today through critically acclaimed exhibitions, pioneering community and learning programmes, and research of the highest quality. We are pleased to present the Kettle’s Yard collection, featuring fine art prints by Ben Nicholson, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska and more leaders of mid-century British art.
‘This tension between time stopped and time passing, and the need for multiple perspectives is everywhere in the house’
Senior Curator of House and Collection at Kettle’s Yard, Inga Fraser tells us how she couldn’t miss the opportunity to work in the unique museum, where original artworks by prominent twentieth-century artists are displayed free of glass or perspex barriers, making for an immersive experience where visitors are able to contemplate the collection as Jim and Helen Ede intended.
