Very generously the owners of Wheatley Manor are allowing us to set a sculpture exhibition in the large beautiful garden. The 1½-acre garden of the Elizabethan manor house (built in 1601) is a perfect setting for - as we think - really really exciting emerging art,  pieces that redefine the idea of sculpture, pieces that use new surprising materials, and pieces that impress with creativity.

The exhibition will take place during the "Open Garden" event from the 12th to 14th of June.

I was invited to take part in the BBC Oxford Programme "Jo in the afternoon".

Garden Art. The Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig has invited to the annual "Rundgang", the highlight of all exhibitions at the Academy during the year. From basement to gallery and atrium up to the studios under the roof... the whole Academy becomes a stage. Nearly all students are presenting pieces of their work.

The Academie got a very good reputation for still allowing students to work in a relative curriculum free environment. Just being nutured by professors like Neo Rauch. The pictured sculpture of flower pots was probably not the best work I saw, but the one that made me smile most.

We are very busy organizing a sculpture show in May: "Found Treasures". The aim is to show exciting new works by new contemporary emerging artists - not so much the polished marble pieces but more edgy provocative works.

If you are an artist and interested in displaying you work send us a mail. If you are a collector, art lover or just anybody interested in what we are doing stay tuned: We are going to give more details about the next events in short time.

We are looking for new unusual places to show the exciting work of new emerging artists in a small event.  This could be the rough space of an empty barn or the elegant salon of a large country house, the interior of a nice boathouse close to the river or the garden of a secluded cottage.

In a time when museums impress more and more with the sheer size of their buildings and the fame of their architects, we thought it would be interesting to show art in a more familiar and because of this in a more unusual setting.

So, if you are the owner or you know about an interesting space, we would like to hear about it: Send us a mail.
