Last night’s book launch and private view for the Derek Boshier monograph and new exhibition at Flowers Gallery in Cork Street, central London, was a great success.

Friends new and old flocked to celebrate the publication of the book and the opening of the show and Derek cheerfully spent hours signing and decorating attendees’ books; in fact all the copies reserved for the night sold out.
