Opening 6 June 2026, the show brings together more than twenty internationally acclaimed artists — including Tracey Emin, Antony Gormley, Cai Guo-Qiang, Anselm Kiefer, Jeff Wall, Mona Hatoum, Raqib Shaw and Theaster Gates — in a rare encounter between cutting‑edge global practice and one of Britain’s most distinctive country houses.
The exhibition transforms Claydon’s historic rooms into immersive gallery spaces and opens two normally private gardens, the walled Pool Garden and Florence Nightingale Garden, for the first time. It’s an ambitious collaboration between White Cube, the National Trust and the Verney family, offering a fresh, imaginative way for audiences to experience art, heritage and landscape together.
