Circles and Tangents: Art in the Shadow of Cranborne Chase
Circles and Tangents presents a visual account of networks and circles of artists living and working on Cranborne Chase from the 1920s to the present day.

Artists in the exhibition from the earlier generation include the Nicholson family (William, Ben, Winifred, E.Q. and Tim), John Craxton, Lucian Freud, Augustus John, Henry Lamb, Frances Hodgkin more
