The first ever public exhibition of Tony Wilson's work is coming to Manchester this summer. Affectionately known as 'Mr Manchester', legendary broadcaster and co-founder of Factory Records, Wilson is known for playing a hand in the creation of Mancunian greats like Joy Division, Happy Mondays, New Order and the Haçienda Nightclub.

Now, after preserving and cataloguing 20 year's worth of material in museum vaults Wilson family, led by Tony's son Oliver, are teaming up with the Smolensky Gallery to host the first public exhibition held by the Tony Wilson Archive of his works.

The immersive exhibition curated by Smolensky Gallery will feature an intimate collection of personal letters, photography, memorabilia and artwork, exploring Wilson’s impact on music, design and culture in Manchester
