Dulwich Picture Gallery

Dulwich Village πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

The world's first purpose-built public art gallery, Dulwich Picture Gallery opened in 1817 in a landmark building designed by Sir John Soane. Its collection is one of the finest in England, with particular strengths in 17th and 18th-century European painting, including works by Rembrandt, Rubens, Poussin, and Gainsborough. Set in leafy south London, it remains an unusually intimate and beautiful gallery experience.

Portrait of a City: A Century of American Photography

Ended Oct 4

Photography

A century of American urban life through 34 photographers, from Stieglitz and Lange to Arbus and Davidson.

4.3/5 from 3 ratings

"Ultimately, there's a slightly overwhelming quality to this exhibition: the walls are covered in potted biographies, in who's who of US photography, many of them represented by just one or two images. It's telling so many stories at once. But that means that everyone who visits will find something to delight in, as they pull out faces from a crowd of varied, jostling, unsettling perspectives on American life."

First major UK show of Estonia's pioneering modernist: 60+ vivid landscapes and portraits.

"For Dulwich Picture Gallery to give this first British showing to Estonia's finest is an admirable gesture, though one suspects they find him more interesting than likable. Still, this show rewards exactly that kind of open curiosity."

Anna Ancher: Painting Light

Ended Mar 8

Painting

First UK exhibition of Danish master Anna Ancher, showcasing 40+ luminous paintings exploring light and colour.

4.5/5 from 2 ratings Β· 3 reviews total

"Her paintings hit a sweet spot of being both radical but legible, crowd-pleasing but novel, foreign but familiar. Leaving the exhibition, one wonders how one had avoided her work for so long. It is extraordinarily beautiful, propelling viewers to look more closely both at the paintings in front of them and at their own everyday spaces."
