Bradford 2025: City selected to host Moomins anniversary artwork

Artworks will also be on show at the Southbank Centre in London, Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead and Gloucester Guildhall.

Shanaz Gulzar, creative director of Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture, said: “We’re delighted to be a part of this global project marking the 80th anniversary of these much-loved characters.

“Bradford is a city of sanctuary, a city of peace and a place of refuge for people from across the world.

“Basel Zaraa’s work demonstrates that audiences, wherever they are from, will be welcome, included and safe at Bradford 2025.”
