Sussy Cazalet: Ascendance
6 February - 20 March 2026
Tristan Hoare Gallery is pleased to present Ascendance, Sussy Cazalet’s second solo exhibition at the gallery.

Ascendence presents 14 handwoven tapestries that sit at the intersection of tradition and contemporary abstraction. Using flat-loom weaving, natural fibres and organic, hand-mixed dyes, Cazalet paints in fibre, harnessing the medium and exploiting its potential to create a unique language of form and feeling, line and texture.
The Exchange: Shahnameh / de Kooning
by Oliver Hoare
In July 1994, on the tarmac of Vienna airport, a clandestine swap saw the government of Iran acquire the most significant part of the 16th century Shahnameh of Shah Tahmasp – the greatest manuscript in the history of Persian painting – in return for Willem de Kooning’s Woman III. This was the culmination of a series of events which had taken place over many years, and which resulted in an extraordinary and ambitious exchange described at the time as the ‘cultural coup of the 1990s’. At the centre of the deal was a charismatic art dealer who dared to pursue the improbable: the late Oliver Hoare (1945-2018).
