SmithDavidson Gallery returns to PAN Amsterdam from November 1 - 8 2026 with a presentation centred around two remarkable premieres. Vincent Lagrange’s sculptural series Never Enough will be shown in the Netherlands for the first time, while 11-year-old Alf Bärbel Wit Peters will make his PAN debut as the youngest artist ever presented at the fair.
Alongside these premieres, the gallery will present works by Australian Aboriginal artists, whose art has long held an important place in its programme, as well as works by Ingo Arndt, Pepe Valenti, Matthijs Scholten, Zhuang Hong Yi and Marie Cécile Thijs. Together, the presentation brings different generations, cultures and artistic disciplines into conversation, spanning photography, sculpture and painting.
Vincent Lagrange - Never Enough
Known for his intimate photographs of animals, Belgian artist Vincent Lagrange takes a new direction with Never Enough. For more than two decades, his photography has captured animals with an extraordinary sense of closeness. In this new series, he moves beyond the photographic image to create sculptural wall works that bring its visual language into physical space.
The forms seem to swell, press and push against their boundaries, exploring excess as something tangible. As the image becomes an object, it takes on a presence that invites viewers to experience Lagrange’s work in a new way.
Following the series’ premiere in Belgium, SmithDavidson Gallery will present Never Enough in the Netherlands for the first time at PAN Amsterdam.
Alf Bärbel Wit Peters — A new chapter
At just 11 years old, Alf Bärbel Wit Peters will become the youngest artist ever presented at PAN Amsterdam.
SmithDavidson Gallery first introduced his paintings publicly in May 2026. His work and remarkable story soon attracted attention from national television and radio, as well as enquiries from collectors and art lovers around the world. Every painting from his debut collection has since found a collector.
Entirely self taught, Alf paints through instinct, rhythm and imagination. His compositions have a freedom and confidence that feel entirely natural, while his visual language continues to develop. At PAN Amsterdam, visitors will be among the first to discover his new work and see where his artistic journey is taking him next.
