The answer is of course a collection of Star Trek fine art…
Generation POP! here in Manchester is an award winning gallery which specialises in pop culture and iconic photographic art and at present is host to some of the finest Star Trek art and limited edition giclee prints the world has ever seen.
As someone who can only really claim to have a nostalgic fondness for the show I quite enjoyed the exhibit and did like the 1970's comic prints on offer, two of which I have posted on here... all in all I find these items are very reasonably priced and would be tempted if I was a slightly richer person... but I guess it would really be only 'kistch' value to me and I would never want to be accused of that!!
But if I did... It was this Kirk which I really dig...

The company was brought together by a group of people here in the UK with over twenty years of experience within the art world and of course a love for Star Trek.
They have created original pieces of art using mixed media from oils to inks and modern technologies of the digital world from fine art paintings to illustrative art covering the Classic TV show to the recent, Next Gen, DS9, Voyager and all the fims…

I love Generation Pop in the first place and often drop by when I'm walking past.
They have held a good few exhibits and openings which have always been a pleasure to attend.

It's well presented and with the limited space, they manage to give the feel of quite a spacious gallery with their wooden floors and full length windows…
So if you are around Manchester and fancy taking in something a little different in the ole' culture stakes... make sure to drop by Generation POP!
