Opening Friday 14 August. More details on opening hours and how to book will follow shortly. Victor Pasmore (born Chelsham, Surrey, 3 December 1908, died Gudja, Malta, 23 January 1998) was one of the greatest British artists of his generation. His pioneering development of abstract art is considered one of the most significant achievements in 20th century British art.
Opening Friday 14 August. More details on opening hours and how to book will follow shortly. Sir Quentin Blake returns to Hastings Contemporary with a prophetic show of new drawings, paintings, and a large-scale mural he has described as ‘his Guernica’, as raw, original and unlikely as anything he has produced in his eight decades of artistic creativity.

Reusable, tie-on face coverings made in St Leonards by a local seamstress Phoebe Brown, are now available from our online shop.
These face coverings are made from double layered 100% cotton fabric. They feature an integral filter pocket (filter not included) and are made with a tailored fit that comes snugly under the chin. They are secured with ties for a better fit to the individual which means you are less likely to touch the front of the mask when putting it on or taking it off.
Hygienically packaged, washable and re-usable, these face coverings are available in men's and women's sizes in a variety of colour and patterns.
Please visit bit.ly/FaceCoveringsbyPhoebeBrown for more designs and to find out more.
