The permanent collection, established by Eric and Salome Estorick in the 1950s, has at its core powerful images by early 20th century Italian Futurists including Balla, Boccioni, Carra, Severini and Russolo in the intimate setting of a large Georgian villa. Also on display are works by figurative artists Modigliani, Sironi, Campigli and the metaphysical painter de Chirico. An exciting programme of temporary exhibitions runs throughout the year. Please call the gallery for further details.
