The Hatton Gallery is Newcastle University's art gallery in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, and is a part of the Great North Museum. It is based in the University's Fine Art Building. == History == The Hatton Gallery was founded in 1925, by the King Edward VII School of Art, Armstrong College, Durham University (Newcastle University's Department of Fine Art), in honour of Richard George Hatton, a professor at the School of Art.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕 Richard Hamilton's seminal ''Man, Machine and Motion'' was first exhibited at the Hatton in 1955 before travelling to the ICA,〔(Richard Hamilton biography )〕 so the Hatton can claim to have been the birthplace of Pop Art. In 1997, the University authorities voted to close down the gallery, but a widespread public campaign against the closure, leading to a £250,000 donation by Dame Catherine Cookson, ensured the survival of the gallery. As part of the Great North Museum project, the gallery's future is secure. Unlike the university's other collections, the Hatton Gallery was not transferred into the Hancock, but remained in the Fine Art Building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Great North Museum )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hatton Gallery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
