Announcing The Courtauld Galleryโs 2024 exhibitions and displays programme! โจ
Highlights include Claude Monetโs Impressionist paintings of London, reunited for the first time in 120 years. The series has never been the subject of a UK exhibition and will realise Monetโs unfulfilled ambition of showing this extraordinary group of paintings in London.
A remarkable series of hauntingly beautiful, large-scale charcoal portraits by Frank Auerbach will go on display in the Spring. Produced in post-war London in the 1950s and 1960s, today these works are considered some of Auerbachโs early masterpieces.
Next Summer, explore an exhibition of works by acclaimed British photographer Roger Mayne (1929-2014), as well as Henry Moore: Shadows on the Wall (in collaboration with @henrymoorefoundation), and the first exhibition at The Courtauld dedicated to the bold, abstract work of Vanessa Bell.

Art and Artifice: Fakes from the Collection at The Courtauld Gallery.
This display showcases drawings, paintings, sculpture and decorative arts that are not what they seem. It presents remarkable forgeries from The Courtauldโs collection and tells the stories behind their making and the discovery of their deception.
Some known forgeries were given to The Courtauld to help students learn from them. Other works were the pride of the collectors who donated them to the Gallery, only to be later revealed as fakes through close looking, technical examination or research into their history.
Until 8 October 2023.
Included with Gallery Entry, Friends go free.
