Sadie Williams, Ralph Steadman’s daughter and the managing director of the Ralph Steadman Art Collection, circulates on in the main gallery where an exhibition of her father’s work, “Ralph Steadman: And Another Thing,” opens tomorrow, June 6, 2025, and runs through Oct. 11, 2025, in the Bates Museum of Art. This extensive traveling exhibition spans over 60 years of Ralph Steadman’s influential and lauded career, and features more than 140 original artworks and ephemera, including sketchbooks, handwritten notes, and personal photographs. Visitors to the exhibition will encounter familiar favorites, like the artist’s illustrations for literary classics such as Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island, as well as works for activist causes, branding iconography, and even a life-sized bronze sculpture.
