      Exhibitions

      Shape and Form

      7 Piccadilly Arcade 29 January - 16 April 2026
      Shape & Form brings together a considered selection of contemporary British works that foreground structure, colour, rhythm, and spatial intelligence. The exhibition traces a lineage from post-war abstraction and conceptual clarity through to younger contemporary practices, revealing how form continues to be a central language in British art.
    • Bridget Riley | Spectrum, 7 Piccadilly Arcade
      Exhibitions

      Bridget Riley | Spectrum

      7 Piccadilly Arcade 12 November - 28 January 2026

      Spectrum charts Riley’s lifelong pursuit of visual harmony and perceptual complexity. Across six decades, she has transformed colour into a language of pure sensation, where the interplay of line, tone and form opens new dimensions of space. This exhibition celebrates that vision and offers collectors and audiences alike an unparalleled opportunity to engage with the full scope of her optical mastery.

    • Christopher Noulton | The Cut, 7 Piccadilly Arcade
      Exhibitions

      Christopher Noulton | The Cut

      7 Piccadilly Arcade 9 October - 11 November 2025

      Christopher Noulton has been exploring further the subject of life, death, and resurrection, inspired greatly by Stanley Spencer’s The Resurrection, Cookham. Just as Spencer depicted the resurrection in his own village, Noulton too has explored this in his imagined village. In spirit, his vision is not unlike that of Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, the architect who created Portmeirion on the Welsh coast.

    • The Emergent and the Iconic | Gallery Artists, 7 Piccadilly Arcade
      Exhibitions

      The Emergent and the Iconic | Gallery Artists

      7 Piccadilly Arcade 21 August - 8 October 2025
      The Emergent and the Iconic brings together two distinct yet interconnected forces in contemporary art: the established mastery of internationally celebrated artists and the compelling, often unpredictable, vitality of a new generation of painters. In this exhibition, works by the most influential figures in post-war British art, such as Bridget Riley and Clyde Hopkins, are shown in direct conversation with the voices of emerging talents such as Christopher Noulton and Gabriela Cohen, whose practices are marked by experimentation, individuality, and a refusal to be bound by precedent.
    • David Hockney | Flowers, Still Life in the 21st Century, 7 Picadilly Arcade
      Exhibitions

      David Hockney | Flowers, Still Life in the 21st Century

      7 Picadilly Arcade 14 May - 20 August 2025
      David Hockney’s most recent flower series represents a landmark in both his career and the broader trajectory of contemporary still life. Composed on the iPad, these works have already taken centre stage in his major ongoing retrospective David Hockney 25 at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, purportedly the largest retrospective exhibition in human history for any artist. It affirms Hockney’s enduring creative vitality, the global reach of his oeuvre and his position as the metaphysical interpreter of nature in the digital age.

      Exhibitions

      James Vaulkhard | The Sublime and The Consumed

      7 Picadilly Arcade 10 April - 13 May 2025

      James Vaulkhard’s painting evinces the grandeurs of the American landscape echoing the depictions of the past. But in contrast to the black and white palette of say Ansel Adams, here the terrain is imbibed with intense colour and hue speaking of a vibrant world alive to our subjectivity but not consumed by it - seeking instead to turn us from malign introspection to engagement with the real itself.

      Exhibitions

      Timothy Gatenby | And All Shall be Memorialised

      7 Picadilly Arcade 13 March - 9 April 2025

      Timothy Gatenby’s work accesses and archives the sculptural iconography of the past and parallels it with the present, subjecting all elements to a contemporary aesthetic rendering. He refigures the monuments of the past for our present, and archives the monoliths of the present in an archaic past.

    • Clyde Hopkins | Paintings 2000 - 2017, 7 Picadilly Arcade

      Clyde Hopkins | Paintings 2000 - 2017

      7 Picadilly Arcade 12 December 2024 - 12 March 2025

      Clyde Hopkins uses lively gestural drawing expanded over large areas of colour to produce his monumental paintings. His work is that of a very honest and sensitive artist who has responded to changes in both himself and the outside world and retained his integrity.
