Our Summer Highlight Exhibition for 2026
We are delighted to be returning to the Barn Gallery at the beautiful Netherwood Estate in Herefordshire.
Our free exhibition will be offering a collection of original works by John Piper, Elisabeth Frink, Rowland Suddaby, Robert Tavener and their contemporaries, exploring how the British landscape was represented in mid-20th century art.
The exhibition will also host a special collection of fabrics designed by John Piper and a display of original mid-century ceramics from across Europe.
All exhibits are for sale.
The beautiful Netherwood Gardens will be open under the National Garden Scheme as follows:
16th-17th May
13th-14th June
A café will be available over each of these weekends.
