Exhibition History

'Urban Miniatures' in 2019 was PaxtonGlew’s curatorial debut, pulling together 40 artists from the Urban and contemporary art scene. The show included an immersive model village diorama, which juxtaposed the nostalgia of model trains with Urban Art and Graffiti. The show was a Winter 2019 exhibition highlight for both contemporary art collectors and miniature fans. Household names in the street, graffiti and contemporary art scene transformed a Hornby train set; from a church, high rise buildings to a Tesco, with running trains, within a never seen before miniature diorama scene.

In the Summer of 2020 the duo embarked on the 'Vitamin Sea' project, by designing a 1:16 scalemodel Beach hut with Yeah Laser in Brighton. The kits were then  sent out to household names in the street art and contemporary art scene to paint or deconstruct, the exhibition coincided with lockdown and so became an online lockdown show which was released in June 2020. In August the pair moved into a longterm pop up gallery space at 12 Hanningtons Lane in Brighton. The first show was 'Vitamin sea' where a number of the beach huts got their first real world airing.

The gallery have since curated many exhibitions at 12 Hanningtons Lane and support the work of over 40 exceptional artists who are at the top of their game. Ranging from fine art painters, photographers, collage artists and 3D makers, the gallery exhibit highly collectable artists with original paintings, sculpture and prints being at the core. While we are situated in Brighton, UK, the gallery send artwork worldwide and have a keen art collector base all over the world.
