Two views of the installation at the John Whibley
Gallery which has just reopened in new and
spacious premises at 22 Cork Street, after ten years
at 60 George Street. The Whibleys intend to
continue with the promotion and development of
those painters and sculptors who have helped to
make the gallery such a success, but their move to
the Bond Street area will no doubt enable them
to both cast their net wider and to give a better
showing to artists already associated with the
gallery. The present exhibition, which closes on
February 17, is a representative showing of Painters
and Sculptors of the gallery.
