‘Little Monster’ (unknown date) by Peter Clough, Manchester Art Gallery

What is this sculpture? The Gallery only knows part of the story and is inviting members of the public to help them find out more. It was purchased in 1961, but nobody knows why. There are no artist dates and no creation date.

They’re exhibiting it in ‘Out of the Crate’, which gets 25% of their sculpture collection out on display, rather than languishing in the stores. So come on, get your research tools and help them find out. This is citizen art research in action. If you know anything about Clough or his little monster, head to their website.
