From mid-July

Internationally acclaimed painter John Miller's distinctive images of glowing beach and deep blue sky are so widely recognised today as to have become synonymous with the county of Cornwall. This summer the New Craftsman Gallery presents a celebratory exhibition of John's work to mark ten years since the artists death in 2002. The exhibition offers a unique chance to view some of the wealth of artwork that remains in John's studio, a legacy of powerfully beautiful paintings, sketches and constructions, including several as yet unseen works. The exhibition runs from 21st July to 11th August.

Throughout June

Following his sell out solo exhibition at the New Craftsman in 2011, the gallery welcomes back acclaimed Penwith landscape painter Neil Davies with an exhibition of new work for summer 2012.

Known for his dramatic oil paintings of Penwith's most spectacular views, Davies work plays witness to the seasonal changes, shifting light and elemental power of Atlantic weather systems over a coast eternally exposed to wind, storm and sea.

Alongside this exhibition will be a showcase of traditional Japanese styled pots, bowls and teapots by international ceramicist Akiko Hirai. The exhibition runs from 2nd June to 16th July Click here for more information.
