Colourful, Creative and Very Cute: Customised Gromit Statues go on Display in Bristol

One of our favourite pooches takes a step into the limelight...

Una Kavanagh

Looks like our much loved dog-hero has finally gotten his own taste of fame!

An exhibition of customised and painted Gromit statues has been released into the public in various parts of Bristol.

This July marked the start of a special charity art display, Gromit Unleashed, where a staggering 80 statues of the brilliant Wallace & Gromit pooch were placed across the city.

Each dog was designed by a different artist and will be on display in Bristol for about 10 weeks.

At the end of the exhibition the statues will be auctioned off to the public with the proceeds going to the Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Charity.

The designs are pretty wonderful and we’re very tempted to head over for a pet! You can see more of these great designs here.
