Von Goetz Gallery presents "A Place Between the Pines," a group exhibition running from 31st May to 28th June 2026 at the historic Crowsley Park estate in South Oxfordshire. The show features seventeen international artists exploring Carl Jung's transcendent function theory, which emphasizes transformation through maintaining tension between opposing forces rather than seeking resolution. Artists include Max Bainbridge, Johanna Bath, Alicja Biala, Anna Blom, Tereza Červeňová, Salvatore Fiorello, Lavinia Harrington, Beatrice Hasell-McCosh, Jin Han Lee, Callum Harvey, Henry Hudson, Jemima Moore, Martine Poppe, Jessie Stevenson, Jill Tate, Yijia Wu, and Xu Yang, working across painting, sculpture, and photography.
This exhibition matters because it reframes the traditional gallery experience as a therapeutic encounter, using Jungian psychology to invite viewers into a space of psychological reflection and transformation. The choice of Crowsley Park—a site with layered history from the 18th century to its role as a WWII and Cold War communications hub—adds symbolic depth, connecting contemporary artistic practice with historical and psychological narratives. The show signals a growing trend in the art world toward integrating psychological theory and immersive, site-specific experiences into curatorial practice.
