About
Thompson’s Gallery, London, will present As We Are, a solo exhibition by acclaimed British painter Paul Wright, running from 10 to 26 September 2025. Represented by the gallery since the very beginning of his career in 2006, Wright has become celebrated for his bold brushwork, vibrant use of colour and the emotional intensity of his portraits, landscapes and still lifes.
This new collection continues his exploration of identity, memory and human connection, with works that balance abstraction and representation in his instantly recognisable style. As We Are marks a significant moment in Wright’s artistic journey, coinciding with his selection for the 2025 Herbert Freehills Kramer Portrait Award at the National Portrait Gallery. Out of more than 40,000 entries, only 46 were chosen, and this marks the third time Wright has been recognised by the award since 2006 — an extraordinary achievement.
The featured work Smaller World exemplifies the qualities that have established Paul Wright as one of the UK’s most compelling painters, offering a moving meditation on the human condition. Thompson’s Gallery invites visitors to experience this powerful exhibition and celebrate nearly two decades of collaboration with the artist.
