Exhibitions
Made in Ancient Egypt
From elaborately decorated coffins to the Books of the Dead, ancient Egyptians produced objects which remain iconic today. But who were the makers behind them and how were they made?
Heatwave in Antarctic: Prints by Tadek Beutlich
Wed 24 September - Sat 10 January 2026
David Parr House
Beutlich’s work is characterised by experimental use of materials, often incorporating non-traditional elements, large-scale, textural, abstract forms and later smaller figurative pieces, alongside pioneering off-loom weaving techniques.
He brought the same spirit of innovation and freedom to printmaking. Typically described as block or relief prints, Beutlich carved the blocks himself, using lino, timber, natural materials, and later Lycra. He worked without a press, choosing to walk on his prints to create impressions. Abstract and organic in theme, the prints echo the forms and tactile quality of his woven work.
This exhibition is presented in partnership with Emma Mason Gallery.
Please note that this exhibition is closed on 24th, 25th, 26th, 27th December & 31st, 1st, 2nd January. The House is closed on Wednesdays.
