‘Artist as Witness: The Impact of War

25 October 2025 – 8 March 2026

This thought-provoking exhibition explores the importance of the artist as eyewitness, providing insights not only into warfare but also the impact of war on those involved and the communities affected. It includes artwork from the First and Second World War, as well as recent work by award-winning artist George Butler of the war in Ukraine.’

If you have returned after yesterday’s visit to the Russell Cotes Museum have a look round the gallery.
