James Hyman Gallery is presenting a dual-artist online exhibition titled “Signature Pots: Patrick Caulfield | Derrick Greaves,” which runs through December 25, 2025. The show brings together works by two major British artists—Derrick Greaves (1927–2022) and Patrick Caulfield (1936–2005)—exploring their shared focus on still life, color, and form.
