FACETS OF VENICE
Jeremy Duncan
6 - 16 August
(Closed Monday 11th)
Open daily 10am - 5pmThe American artist, Rockwell Kent, said ‘we live for those passing moments of beauty’. I find these in old buildings. Façades provide a framework of bold horizontals and verticals counterbalanced by the diagonals of cast shadows. This geometry is enriched by the texture of building materials such as stone, brick, plaster or wood, and is enhanced by the colours of doors, windows, shutters and shop fronts.
I have found inspiration all over the world, especially in New York, London, Paris, Venice and Rome, but my immediate environment also provides endless subject matter, a familiar building, for example, entirely changing character as light falls on it in the morning or evening.
The battle to harmonise such different elements is constantly challenging an rewarding. I aim for a sort of abstract realism, seeking a pleasing composition which the Dutch painter, Piet Mondrian, liked to call ‘a dynamic equilibrium’.

THE LORE OF THE LAND
Adele Riley
3 - 9th September 2025
Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)This exciting body of new work seeks to explore our connections to the land, shining a light on the simplicity and beauty of the normal, of the nature that surrounds us but which we sometimes allow to pass us by.
It’s been my aim to emphasise the significance of nature and wildlife in my work, but also to recognise nature and its importance to wider humanity.
I’m delving into the past and rediscovering the wonderful tales and folklore that walk hand in hand with the natural world; with it’s seasons, moons, flora and fauna. I want to spotlight the beautiful simplicity of life, the wonderful gifts nature constantly presents to us, which I know we humans all crave more than ever before.
Whether you are an emerging or established artist looking to exhibit your work, or a designer or craftsperson looking to launch new products or ideas to public, we want to help.
The 430 sq ft sensitively restored space offers a fantastic ground floor frontage with a direct entrance onto a pretty street in the centre of attractive Montpellier; well known for its bars, restaurants, specialist shops and galleries.
Housed in an immaculately presented grade II listed building , built over 170 years ago, the space is bright, intimate and full of character.
If you would like to join our stable of artists and designers, all you have to register your work in order for it to be reviewed by our team. The reason for doing this is while we are keen to maintain an eclectic mix of styles, we also want to make sure it is the right fit for the space.
The minimum hire period is one week starting at £400, but you may also book for longer periods when available, and we ask for no commission on any of your sales.
As well as hiring out the space to artists and creative businesses, we will also arrange a programme of selected group and solo shows where we will invite people to submit their work for inclusion.
