Lucian Freud's Etchings: A Creative Collaboration

Step into the creative world of Lucian Freud with a FREE exhibition that’s all about discovery and detail.

Lucian Freud’s Etchings: A Creative Collaboration shines a light on the artist’s lesser-known passion for printmaking, displaying intricate etchings that reveal Freud’s creative work beyond his celebrated paintings.

Part of a touring programme from the V&A, this exhibition in The Fine Gallery, gives visitors the chance to explore rarely seen work by one of Britain’s most influential artists.

At the heart of the exhibition is a unique collection of trial proofs collected by master printer Marc Balakjian, who worked alongside Freud for more than two decades. These prints tell the story of an extraordinary artistic partnership and offer a fascinating glimpse into Freud’s creative process.

With a local twist, the exhibition also reflects Freud’s personal connection to Dorset, where he attended Bryanston School and later owned a home near Shaftesbury, bringing his work back to where a part of his story began.
