LONDON, UK. October 8th, 2025 – Eames Fine Art is proud to present Paul Catherall: Less Is More, a solo exhibition running from 15 October to 9 November celebrating the acclaimed printmaker’s return to a pared-back aesthetic.
The show opens with a private view at Eames Fine Art Gallery on Bermondsey Street, which takes place on Wednesday 15 October from 6.00–8.30pm. Guests will have the chance to meet the artist and enjoy a drink while viewing the debut of a new collection of linocuts.
With his instantly recognisable style – clean lines, sharp edges and an evocative colour palette – Paul Catherall has become one of the UK’s most respected printmakers of architectural landmarks. From London’s skyline to post-war Brutalist icons, his linocuts balance design precision with emotional resonance.
In this new exhibition, Catherall revisits the mantra that has shaped much of his career: “Less is more.” The result is a new series of works created with a renewed commitment to simplicity, clarity, and design integrity.
“This show marks a return to a mantra I’ve found myself using time and again over the years,” said Paul Catherall. “To distil a subject to its very essence without unnecessary embellishment – that’s when a print truly comes alive.”
The exhibition features new and reimagined works of iconic sites including Battersea Power Station, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and the soon-to-be refurbished BT Tower, as well as never-before-seen linocuts of Victor Pasmore’s Apollo Pavilion and a meditative series of birch tree prints.
Catherall’s career spans commissions for Transport for London, British Airways, Marks and Spencer, Faber & Faber, and book covers for Bloomsbury and HarperCollins. His work is also held in collections at the Southbank Centre, Royal Shakespeare Society, and private collections worldwide.
Born in Coventry and now based in London, Catherall’s prints draw on a deep admiration for Modernist and Brutalist design, shaped by the architecture of his youth and influenced by designers like Edward McKnight Kauffer, Tom Purvis, Cézanne, and Sickert.
Collectors who purchase a print during the exhibition’s first week will be invited to an exclusive evening at the gallery with the artist, where Paul will discuss the inspiration and ethos behind this body of work.
