Andrew Litten is included in the exhibition ‘Made in Britain’ at The National Museum, Gdansk, Poland from March 14 to June 2, 2019.

The exhibition consists of 82 works by painters based all over the UK, which form part of the Priseman Seabrook Collection of 21st Century British Painting. The collection includes works by the Lucian Freud, Tracey Emin and David Hockney as well as European Sovereign Painters Prize winner Susan Gunn, European Sovereign Painters Prize winner, and John Moores Prize winner Nicholas Middleton.

The Priseman Seabrook Collection of 21st Century British Painting was set up by Robert Priseman, who wanted to do something to promote the art of painting. Seabrook says: “In 2014, I came to realise that many of this new wave of British painters had yet to be collected with the same geographical and chronological focus of their predecessors and foreign contemporaries. So, with the help of my wife, I began the process of bringing together a body of work by artists which followed the very simple criteria of being painting produced after the year 2000 within the British Isles.” So far, the couple have acquired more than 120 paintings from over 100 artists, which has now become the very first collection of art dedicated to 21st century British painting in the UK.
