The National Maritime Museum in Greenwich is not one museum but many, encompassing the Royal Observatory, the home of Greenwich Mean Time and the Queen's House. Its collections boast a staggering range of art and artefacts, telling stories of navigation and seafaring, astronomy and time-keeping.
These are rich historic seams for any contemporary artist to mine, and an exhibition of new work by the young sculptor Conrad Shawcross shows the timeless character of its themes.
