We have new work coming into baxters all year round but 3 times a year we empty the gallery space and devote it to a completely new show for 3 weeks. Two of these shows - May and October coincide with Dartmouth Galleries weeks when most of the galleries in Dartmouth have a private view on the same night. It's a great time to visit and both the selection of art available and the atmosphere are fantastic.

Email us with your home address and we can add you to our mailing list to receive invitations to private views and see a preview of the exhibitions.

Trevor Price and Mark Penrose   22nd – June 11th 2009

Original paintings and prints from gallery favourite Trevor Price will be shown alongside recycled copper ship weathervanes by Cornish sculptor Mark Penrose. Trevor has won several national printmaking awards, and is an active member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. In the past few years he has enjoyed working in acrylics producing original works that echo the same themes and quirkiness of his printmaking. We are excited to be showing his original work for the first time.

Two by Two   October 23rd – November 12th 2009

Two animal artists Catherine Rayner and Jackie Spurrier show alongside two animal sculptors Simon Griffiths and Brendan Hesmondhalgh.

Catherine's screenprints are well known in the gallery for their charm and we look forward to seeing her new characters. She has had great success with books as well as solo shows in the past year. Jackie's cow canvases sell as soon as we hang them so it will be fantastic to be able to show a small herd of new work.

Simon's birds, often mounted on reclaimed wood, are frost proof and therefore suitable for indoor and outdoor display. His work shows the form, structure and character of the bird in amazing detail. Brendan's bold animal forms are often mounted on ceramic plinths and he has now created some limited edition resin pieces. Brendan has spent a lot of time recently on some large public commissions so we look forward to showing a new body of work from him.
