From David Bomberg to Paula Rego – The London Group in Southampton
Southampton City Art Gallery has Britain’s largest collection of work by The London Group. The collection was started in 1954 after a highly successful London Group exhibition held during that year, and it has continued to be built up until today. For the first time, the gallery is showing the historic works together alongside contemporary work by current members in a dynamic show representing many of Britain’s greatest 20th and 21st century artists.
