The 20th Anniversary show presents the best of the 20th century, representing works by the late Frederick Gore RA along side the genius of Claude Venard championing British and French greats across this creative decade.
When asked to comment on the Gallery over the last twenty years, John Adams stated:
Hanham Court – A Pastoral Idyll
South Kensington – Christie’s heralds Spring with the sale of Hanham Court – A Pastoral Idyll, an eclectic collection to be held at Christie’s South Kensington on Wednesday, 14 April 2010.
Immersed in the world of antiques from a young age, Isabel and Julian Bannerman first met in Edinburgh in 1982 and have been collecting together ever since. The sale will consist of approximately 300 lots with estimates ranging from £300 to £30,000; and is expected to realize in the region of £400,000.
Funds from the sale will be used to further focus the Bannerman’s efforts on developing the award-winning public garden at Hanham Court, as Julian states
“It is time for surprises in the garden at Hanham – next we hope will come all the things that we have been aching to get on with”.

Vue Cinema Westfield
The Vue Cinema Westfield will open on the 12th February and is already being talked about as Europe’s largest digital cinema.
The Cinema will include 14 auditoria with 3D technology – ideal for a peak at the latest 3D epic Avatar. An added feature (which is something I love) is that the largest 500 seater auditorium will included super comfort Superior Seats – no more bum ache mid through a movie! Another 3 screens have there own dedicated bar and restaurant area which is perfect for mid movie snacks and drinks, although no doubt you’ll be popping to the rest rooms a little more often!
The new cinema will be located above the existing Loft restaurants overlooking the Atrium at the heart of the Westfield shopping centre. So you can round off your perusal of 275 luxury retailers with a bite to eat and a movie.
