Overview
We are delighted to invite our members to an exclusive tour of Howard Hodgkin: In a Public Garden – the largest institutional exhibition of original prints by the acclaimed British artist to date. Curated by renowned art historian Richard Calvocoressi, this landmark show features around 60 vibrant, emotionally charged prints and paintings that span five decades of Hodgkin’s career, from 1966 to 2016.
Installed throughout Pitzhanger’s contemporary gallery and the atmospheric rooms of the historic Manor itself, this retrospective-in-print immerses visitors in Hodgkin’s world of colour, memory, and abstraction. His bold, gestural works — full of nuance and feeling — transform the building into a living canvas of moments remembered and reimagined. This will be Pitzhanger’s largest ever exhibition and a celebration of Soane and Hodgkin’s shared passion for space, light and colour.
The Pitzhanger Café and Shop will be open all day, so why not bring a friend and make the most of our beautiful setting with coffee, cake and sandwiches.
Entry to this event is free for members, and £12 for guests of members. This is a ticketed event so please ensure you have booked your space. Spaces are limited.
