Dogs & Cats: An Exhibition
Chatwin Arts is pleased to present a group show this November, 2025 that celebrates humanity's deep and longstanding connection to dogs and cats. Our obsession with pets may seem modern, but artists have been inspired by their four-legged companions for thousands of years. This show will feature contemporary paintings, drawings, photographs and sculptures featuring either of humanity’s two constant companions: dogs and cats.
We expect this exhibition to be especially well-received, owing to its humor and its heartfelt exploration of the enduring appeal of cats and dogs.
We are looking for original work that showcases dogs and/or cats.
