Opened in 2021, the Vanner Gallery is a contemporary space in the heart of the cathedral city of Salisbury, Wiltshire. The gallery shows established and emerging artists in group and solo presentations. Highlights include an exhibition of late work by the major British painter John Blackburn, in association with leading London gallery Osborne Samuel, a joint exhibition by world-

renowned street artists David Shillinglaw and Lily Mixe, and a solo exhibition of new paintings by Spencer Shakespeare.

​

As well as hosting the Graduate Art Show every year, the gallery is committed to supporting newly graduated artists on an ongoing basis. Several artists who have come through the Graduate Art Show programme have appeared in one or more subsequent exhibitions. The gallery has also offered work experience to one of the previously selected artists to give them a deeper understanding of the art industry and provide continuity in their artistic activity post-graduation.

 

David is looking forward to hosting this year Graduate Art Show from 10th January until 1st February 2025.
