2018 marks 200 years since the publication of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, a book that is just as relevant now as it was in 1818. Today, Shelley's creature lives on, as an embodiment of society's anxieties about where science is taking us.
The Ri will be closed to the public from Wednesday 16 to Wednesday 23 July. We will then be closed for building works from Monday 28 July to Friday 12 September (inclusive).
