We are delighted to announce our plans to create a new world-class campus at Somerset House, a major development which will strengthen the Courtauld’s position as a leading global centre for the visual arts.
As we approach our centenary in 2032, this once-in-a-generation project will:
🖼 Transform our historic Grade 1 listed building at Somerset House and create a flexible, state-of-the-art campus that will bring the Courtauld Institute and Gallery together under one roof, securing our legacy for the next 100 years.
📚 Develop new teaching programmes and academic centres of excellence, increasing our focus on global geographies.
✨ Launch the Courtauld Next Generation Fund, an ambitious bursary and scholarship scheme that will enable the most talented students to study with us, whatever their background.
Thanks to transformational funding from Reuben Foundation, Blavatnik Family Foundation, Deborah Loeb Brice Foundation, Clore Duffield Foundation, Garfield Weston Foundation, Oak Foundation, The Julia Rausing Trust, Wolfson and Rothschild Foundation, and many others who made this possible.

The Women is a particularly important painting for Salman Toor, who has said that if we were to write a collection of short stories, the narrative depicted here would be the first.
He has described it as:
‘A coming-of-age moment for the boy experiencing a blossoming sense of self’ 💬
The faces and certain objects in this work are painted in detail, but the bare walls and floor are rendered more loosely, with sweeping strokes of thickly brushed greens producing a setting that feels comforting and cocooned from the outside world.
See it on display in Salman Toor: Someone Like You, until 10 January 2027.
🎟️ Advance booking highly recommended. Book now - link in bio

‘I hope there’s this sense of value of deep looking’ - Ella Walker 💭
Step inside the studio of Ella Walker @ellawalker.me (b.1993) and discover her process in creating the Courtauld Commission 2026, two new site-specific commissions for the Courtauld Gallery.
Ella Walker creates monumental canvases that act like dream-like stages. They are dominated by female figures whose gestures and interactions are both familiar and confounding, eschewing expected behaviour and transcending fixed roles.
The new works also take inspiration from Renaissance art, with Sandro Botticelli’s The Trinity with Saints Mary Magdalen and John the Baptist (c.1491-94) having been a touchstone for Walker in creating this commission.
This is the second Courtauld Commission, a series of annual commissions by contemporary artists for the Courtauld Gallery, which launched in 2025 with new works by artist Rachel Jones. The new artworks are presented in The John Browne Entrance Hall and the Ticketing Hall, and are free to visit.

Inspired by Manet, made in New York 🥂
This work, The Bar on East 13th, is one of the first nighttime scenes that Toor painted in his characteristic green palette, conjuring memories of encounters in bars in which attraction and a sense of unease and displacement coexist. The most direct source of inspiration was Édouard Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergère (1882), which Toor saw during a visit to the Courtauld Gallery in 2017. Toor has said:
‘This work holds nostalgia, memoir and an aspirational autofiction. It helped me paint my way into finding a community in New York City; it was also like coming out through painting.’ 💭
Want to learn more about Salman Toor’s work, themes, and enduring engagement with art historical references? Limited tickets remain for our Salman Toor: Someone Like You - In Context, our upcoming Saturday Study Day on 28 November 2026.
⏰ Salman Toor: Someone Like You is open until 10 January

Ghost Ball is one of Salman Toor’s largest paintings to date, which he has described as ‘an allegory for living between cultures or languages – the surrealism and comedy of that condition’ 🪩

Tickets are now on sale for Paula Rego: Dog Woman 🎟️
This will be the first retrospective exhibition dedicated to Paula Rego’s (1935 – 2022) groundbreaking Dog Woman series, bringing together fifteen of her earliest pastels for the first time since they were created over 30 years ago. The exhibition will reassess the significance of this body of work, which revolutionised the way in which women were represented and cemented Rego’s reputation as one of the most radical artists of our time.
More than any other body of work, the Dog Woman series became synonymous with Rego’s unique, uncompromising portrayal of the physicality and power of female figures. She said the strength of these works came from channelling her own raw, undiluted feelings, squatting and posing in front of a mirror, ‘turning myself into an animal’.
'In these pictures every woman's a dog woman, not downtrodden but powerful. To be bestial is good'. 💭
The exhibition will be accompanied by Paula Rego: Pendle Witches, on display in the Project Space. Book now to avoid missing out.

Specialist institutions drive the UK’s skills, research, culture, and global standing.
Last night, alongside @universitiesuk, we hosted ‘Excellence in Action’ to highlight why protecting these institutions is critical for national growth. Bringing together leaders across creative industries, design, healthcare, and technology, the event featured inspiring perspectives from Lord Browne, Tim Davie, Vivienne Stern CBE, and remarkable recent alumni.
Strategic Priorities Grant funding, which includes world-leading specialist funding, has fallen by 42% in real terms since 2015-16. Because student numbers have grown, per-student funding rates are down 59%. The evening was a timely reminder of why these specialist institutions are so vital for the UK’s economy and cultural life.

Paul Cézanne connected 19th-century Impressionism with 20th-century Cubism. Matisse and Picasso are both said to have called him "the father of us all." 🎨
This first instalment of The Art of Looking with the Courtauld Institute of Art zooms in on one of the watercolours Cézanne created at the end of his career: 'Apples, Bottle and Chairback'.
Today, Cézanne’s approach to form, structure, and perspective continues to influence modern art history. Discover more techniques behind his works on Google Arts & Culture via the link in bio.
