Some great paintings in the Joseph Wright of Derby show at the National Gallery, but you don't get a lot for your money. Read what we thought: art-exhibitions.blogspot.com/2025/11/a-me.... Here's a detail from An Earthstopper on the Banks of the Derwent, 1773, Derby Museum & Art Gallery.

Stanley Spencer is always associated with Cookham, but it's his Suffolk links which get explored in new exh at Gainsborough's House starting today. If this view of Southwold is typical, it should be excellent. gainsborough.org/event/stanle...

Recommendation here for the exhibition marking 100 years of Art Deco at the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris. It's on till late April....
Le #MuséedesArtsdécoratifs célèbre le centenaire du triomphe de l' #ArtDéco à l’Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes. Il en résulte une superbe rétrospective d'envergure... où l'on peine à relier les cartels aux œuvres. A voir absolument !
