Who am I to you?
Celebrate ten years of the Treasures of the Brotherton with a bold reimagining of our collection of portrait busts.
Since opening in 2016, Treasures of the Brotherton has introduced over 100,000 visitors to the extraordinary Cultural Collections cared for by the University of Leeds. It is a place to share our curiosity about the world. We’ve sought to invite conversation, spark inspiration, and explored some of the most important questions of our time. Now in 2026 we ask: Who am I to you?
Who am I to you? encourages you to see familiar faces in a new light. Explore identity, representation and public memory through sculpture, rare books and 3D technologies. Encounter life casts, coins and medals that challenge traditional ideas of portraiture. Discover how art and science shape our understanding of people, power and cultural heritage.
The exhibition invites reflection on what these objects can tell us about our shared past and present. It also explores the silences and absences that shape who is remembered, and who is forgotten.
