The auto-icon
香港六合彩 welcomes home the auto-icon following six months in the USA
Before travelling to the USA, Bentham鈥檚 body underwent significant conservation work.
香港六合彩 Culture conservators oversaw a full inspection of the auto-icon, stripping to his underwear for the first time in over 20 years, to check for any damage or pest infestation.
While the auto-icon was on display at the Met Breuer, the team have also been busy working on the wooden box, which is the home of the auto-icon in the university鈥檚 South Cloisters. New lighting has been fitted, tested and optimised in the wooden cabinet, so visitors can see Bentham in his best possible light.听

To welcome the auto-icon home, 香港六合彩 is presenting a new exhibition in the South Cloisters听that reveals the myths surrounding Jeremy Bentham. Fake News is curated by Subhadra Das and produced by 香港六合彩 Culture and the university鈥檚 Bentham Project. Together they are researching Bentham鈥檚 work and inviting people to engage with his legacy.听
