Exhibitions from the Collection

Apart from the exhibitions, usually commercial galleries,  where the art works in the collection were originally shown by the artist. Since being acquired works in the Collection have been borrowed and featured in exhibitions held at various museums and galleries.
Collection works are available "on loan ", subject to the usual loan agreement, for future exhibitions being curated by public institutions.
