An exhibition of art by Bob Dylan is going on display for the first time in the UK.
The show will feature Dylan's drawings and sketches from periods on the road between 1989 and 1992.

The musician's fans will also be able to see Dylan's paintings in The Drawn Blank Series, which opens in June.

The singer's work is said to explore the experience of "dislocation and the ceaseless confrontation with new faces" and places on tour.

The Halcyon Gallery, which is showing the work, said: "Feelings of anonymity, transience, rootlessness and sometimes loneliness pervade these representations of the people, objects and places that Dylan has seen and drawn."

Gallery president Paul Green said: "This is an incredible opportunity for viewing this powerful body of work which gives an insight into the artist's soul and which have already been the subject of widespread critical acclaim.

"Halcyon Gallery is privileged to be hosting this unique exhibition."

The exhibition opens at the London gallery on June 14.

The first exhibition of Dylan's work opened in Germany last year.
