It was where Henry Moore carved some of his earliest sculptures. In 1922 his sister, Mary Moore, was appointed headmistress. When she moved to Wighton she brought her parents and young brother Henry with her. During his vacations from the Royal College of Art he sculpted in the garden. In 1993 the Henry Moore Foundation and the School House Gallery put on the exhibition ‘Henry Moore and the Sea’.<\/p>\n The Gallery also houses the Alfred Cohen Art Foundation, and includes a permanent (but changing) exhibition of his work, which includes items from the Foundation’s own collection, as well as from private collections. The Gallery is the primary outlet for Cohen’s graphic work, in particular his screenprints.<\/p>\n During most of the year the Gallery presents a mixed exhibition of vibrant, mainly figurative, modern works.<\/p>\n Previous Exhibitions have included:<\/p>\n The School House Gallery,\u00a0Wighton,\u00a0Near Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk NR23 1AL Tel: 01328 820457 CURRENT EXHIBITIONS: MIXED EXHIBITION: Paintings, Drawings and Prints Throughout 2019 and ALFRED COHEN: Works from the Alfred Cohen Art Foundation and Private Collections; and small works for sale\u00a0\u00a0till December 2019 The School House, Wighton, was Alfred Cohen’s home for the last twenty-two years… More School House Gallery<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":243,"featured_media":0,"parent":16,"menu_order":75,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"template-full.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-198","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/243"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":295,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198\/revisions\/295"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/maxsaunders\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Pictures in the gallery<\/h2>\n
