MK Calling (28 June – 8 September) is the Gallery’s summer programme of exhibitions and performances, featuring 100 artists, musicians and performers from Milton Keynes. This dynamic season of painting, video, dance, music, poetry and much, much more will showcase MK’s finest emerging and established talent.

Join Marcus Coates and Gallery Director Anthony Spira for an informal discussion about the artist's work. "…my work is all about our relationship with animals and nature… There is humour in the work, but a serious side explores how we use our relationship with animals to define our humanness." Marcus Coates

This exhibition is the first survey of Marcus Coates’ work in a public gallery in the UK and it includes early film pieces, sculpture, sound, costumes and photographs as well as new work.
