History

 
The Fosse Gallery is often described as one of the most important galleries outside London. Situated in Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire for over a quarter of a century, it has brought to the attention of the public the work of some of the most distinguished artists of our time. Artists like Augustus John RA, Dame Laura Knight RA, Sir Hugh Casson PPRA, Alberto Morocco RSA RGI, Dorathea Sharp, Ruskin Spear RA, Mary Fedden OBE RA, John Piper, Carel Weight RA and L S Lowry.

Founded by Gerard O’Farrell and Brian Sinfield in the mid-1970s the Fosse Gallery began by selling Victorian art. By the early 1980s a great partnership was established between Don Steyn and Gerard O’Farrell. A mecca for artists, dealers and art lovers alike, it became a meeting place for people from all over the British Isles and abroad: staging some of the most important and memorable exhibitions.

In 1998 the present owner Sharon Wheaton joined the Fosse Gallery and worked closely with Don Steyn. She concentrated on emerging young artists as well as established names like Paul Hogarth RA, Andrew Macara NEAC, Donald Macintyre RCA, Michael Scott, David Imms, Mick Rooney RA, Lucy Dickens and Duncan Wood NEAC to name a few. She was also involved in the retrospective exhibition for royal portrait painter Norman Hepple RA and handling the estate of Middleton Todd RA.

The Fosse Gallery is wholeheartedly committed to showing the best of British figurative and narrative art in mixed and solo exhibitions throughout the year.
