Another Place is both a celebration and a farewell. It gathers works from the collection of a private individual whose passion for art, and whose friendship with the gallery, spanned more than twenty-five years. Her passing in December 2024 left a profound absence, yet her spirit endures in the art she cherished and the relationships she nurtured.
Dot Wade’s Division in Davy’s Gray Reimagined in Cashmere by Alba Amicorum
Alba Amicorum has unveiled a new limited-edition cashmere scarf inspired by Dot Wade’s painting Division in Davy’s Gray. Wade’s instinctive approach to painting embodies structural compositions and a reductive palette, seeking places of stillness and meditation.

A gentle stroll through the six-acre plot offers an eclectic journey of sculptural and spiritual delight. There’s something around every corner – along the paths and borders, on the formal lawns, and even among the fruit, vegetables, flowers and herbs of the kitchen garden.

Marrying contemporary art with landscape in a unique and spectacular way.
Nestled in an ancient Cornish village, a handful of miles from the Atlantic coast, the Withiel sculpture garden marries contemporary art with landscape in a unique and spectacular way.
The exhibition is an exploration of radiant light: seen in Hong Kong where the air is very humid and the buildings appear as silhouettes, in New York where the views tend to be more gritty and in expansive seascapes and coastal views which capture the sense of space in Cornwall which is so important to the artist.
As ever, we will be showcasing an outstanding collection of Modern British and contemporary art, including work by John Bellany, Sandra Blow, Marj Bond, John Byrne, Neil Canning, Doug Cocker, Alan Davie, Gareth Edwards, John Hoyland, Hamish MacDonald, David Martin and other gallery artists. In addition we will be exhibiting sculpture and ceramics by Fawkes Jackson, Sophie Marsham, David Roberts and Jason Wason.
