until 28 June:Heath Robinson Museum: The Life in a Line brings together an extraordinary lineup of artists to show just how far a single drawn line can go — from explosive expression to razorsharp precision, from humour to psychological depth. The experience begins the moment visitors step inside. Mr Doodle has turned the entrance walls and windows into a vast handpainted mural — a riot of characters and flowing lines that sets the tone for the exhibition. Inside, he unveils a new series of largescale works featuring machinelike figures drawn in his signature continuous “spaghetti” line, which spills across canvases and onto the museum walls. These energetic drawings playfully connect with the ingenious contraptions of Heath Robinson, and his rarely seen cartoons of the adventures of Mr Spodnoodle, shown here for the first time in decades. The exhibition shifts in tone to the psychological, with a powerful small portrait by Frank Auerbach and a rare group of intense ink drawings by the late frontman of The Pogues, Shane McGowan. The final gallery brings these voices together in a salon style display that charts drawing’s evolution from the late 19th century to today. Visitors will find: Damien Hirst’s original drawing for the Diamond encrusted skull, For the Love of God (2007) Glenn Brown’s unsettling reworkings of Old Master imagery. Etchings by Picasso and Matisse. Giacometti’s fiercely expressive standing figure David Inshaw’s original study for The Badminton Match  Andy Warhol portraits. works by Jake Chapman, Zavier Ellis and Matthew Collings. The Museum is open 11am-4pm, Thursday-Sunday. Tickets: adults, £8; child 5-15, £2 (under 5s free); concessions (student, disabled person, in receipt of benefits) £4; carer (with disabled person) free; Art Fund, free.
