Exhibition Archives & Early Works
Nicholas Stedman’s exhibition history began during his formative years, culminating in his first public showing at the Porter’s Lodge of King’s College, Cambridge. This debut featured a series of gouache landscapes and expressionist oils depicting the Kentish hopfields and the Venezuelan mountains—a joint exhibition alongside engravings by Julian Temple and photography by Charlie Sedgwick. During this period, he was also selected for a group exhibition at the prestigious Kettle’s Yard.
Following his relocation to Paris, Stedman participated in various group exhibitions organized by the city’s historic drawing school in the Place des Vosges. His first major solo exhibition, however, took place in Rome while he was attending the Accademia di Belle Arti. This landmark show was held on Via Margutta, then recognized as the city’s premier thoroughfare for the contemporary arts.
Upon his return to Paris, Stedman contributed to numerous collective shows before his definitive solo exhibition at the Galerie Le Monde de l’Art, titled Corps en Danger. Since that milestone, his work has been exhibited extensively across Europe, the United States, and Taiwan.
In 2011, Stedman established his practice in Sicily, where he has since participated in various group exhibitions and held three major solo shows. He is currently represented by Raffaello Galleria in Palermo.
