Frankophilia! An exhibition of artwork by Frank Sidebottom fans November 17, 2010

The University of Salford's Chapman Gallery will be hosting 'Frankophilia!', an exhibition of fan's artwork celebrating the great Frank Sidebottom.

Earlier this year, fans responded to the sad news of the death of Frank's creator, Chris Sievey, with a touchingly creative mourning. Images of all kinds of Frank-inspired objects made their way on-line; artwork made in response to the news, or years previously out of sheer Frank-love. 'Frankophilia!' will bring this work together and revel in its beautifully touching daftness - a multi-media ode to Frank.

Frank fans are a creative lot and have submitted everything from doodles to papier-mâché to full-blown animation, well-loved and tatty or made especially with 'Frankophilia!' in mind, everything has been welcomed.

Opening hours

17 November - 18 December 2010 (Wed-Sat, 12-5)
