derrick greaves patrick caulfield james hyman gallery

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. Greaves, who represented Britain at the Venice Biennale in the 1950s and was associated with the Kitchen Sink painters, later developed a graphic style linked to Pop art. Caulfield emerged in the 1960s as part of the New Generation alongside David Hockney and Bridget Riley. The exhibition highlights how both artists transformed everyday objects into iconic images, with works such as Greaves's "Still Life with White Lillies" (2021) and Caulfield's "Untitled (signature pots)" (ca.1975) demonstrating their mastery of line, shape, and color.

Van Gogh’s family used an erotic Gauguin ceramic as a flower vase

A researcher at the Van Gogh Museum, Joost van der Hoeven, has revealed that Paul Gauguin's erotic ceramic, the Cleopatra Pot (winter 1887-88), was used as a flower vase by Vincent van Gogh's family. Gauguin brought the pot to Arles when he stayed with Van Gogh in 1888, and after Van Gogh's ear incident, Gauguin gave the pot to Vincent's brother Theo as a gift. The pot later remained with Theo's widow, Jo Bonger, and a photograph from 1925-26 shows it on her piano holding flowers, surrounded by still-life paintings.

Big Galleries Are Racing to Sign Emerging Artists. It’s Changing Everything

Major blue-chip galleries like Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace, and White Cube are increasingly signing emerging artists earlier in their careers, bypassing the traditional trajectory where young artists would first develop with smaller galleries over many years. Examples include George Rouy joining Hauser & Wirth at age 30, Pam Evelyn joining Pace at 27, and Sasha Gordon joining David Zwirner in 2024. This shift comes amid a contracting art market where aggregate dealer sales fell 6% between 2023 and 2024, while smaller galleries with turnover under $250,000 saw sales grow 17%. Ultra-contemporary auction sales dropped 37.9% in the same period, signaling a cooling of speculative buying.
