Glenn Brown Exhibitions Span Suffolk to Bath Museums in 2026
The Facts
Glenn Brown's works are the subject of a solo exhibition at Gainsborough's House, Suffolk, presenting paintings and drawings from the past ten years that explore the artist's engagement with the tree motif and layered portraits. Concurrently, Brown's double presentation in Bath includes 'Grottoesque' at No.1 Royal Crescent, featuring works responding to Georgian grottoes and the grotesque nature of trees, alongside 'Arrows of Desire' at The Holburne Museum, where recent paintings hang among the museum's permanent collection of English and Dutch works. Additionally, Walton Ford will be in conversation with Brown on Wednesday, 16 September 2026, at 6.30pm at Galerie Max Hetzler's London location on 41 Dover Street.
The Signal
The extensive programming signals a significant institutional embrace of Brown's work across the UK, with solo presentations at Gainsborough's House, two Bath museums, and a concurrent conversation event in London. Brown also curated a group exhibition, 'Hoi Polloi', at The Brown Collection in London, drawing works from the sixteenth century to the present. His recent inclusion in the inaugural exhibition at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo's new Venice venue, Isola di San Giacomo, alongside Matthew Barney and Albert Oehlen, further underscores his relevance among established and emerging contemporary artists.
