Renowned artist Alexander Dakers brings award-winning work to The Green House Hotel in a one-off exhibition.
Internationally acclaimed artist Alexander Dakers of Zander Artwork is set to showcase his vibrant and emotive body of work in a special one-day exhibition at The Green House Hotel on Saturday, August 31, from 12noon to 6pm.
This unique event marks a rare opportunity to view the full spectrum of Dakers’ talent in an intimate setting, with all proceeds going to support Dorset Blind, a local charity dedicated to helping the visually impaired.
  Queen of Hearts (Image: Submitted) Dakers has swiftly become one of the most talked-about names in contemporary portraiture.
Known for his striking use of oils, bold textures, and vivid colours, his signature style brings an electrifying life to canvas — particularly through the eyes of his subjects.
His breakthrough production, Father and Sons, captivated audiences in both London and Glasgow, earning him the number one spot in Scotland’s art rankings in 2024.
  Take Me (Image: Submitted) “I aim to communicate emotion through texture and light,” Dakers explains. 
“The eyes are everything — they carry the story.”
His growing international recognition speaks to the universal appeal of his work.
In 2024, Dakers placed an impressive seventh out of 170 artists at the prestigious Art Expo exhibition in New York City.
His art has also been seen in Tokyo and across Europe, and featured on Sky Arts, further solidifying his reputation as a dynamic and rising force in the global art world.
Beyond accolades, Dakers is committed to social impact through art.
  Deep thoughts Anthony Hopkins (Image: Submitted) He has contributed to Amnesty International and other humanitarian causes, using his platform to advocate for dignity, equality, and accessibility.
The upcoming exhibition at The Green House Hotel reflects that same ethos, with donations and a portion of artwork sales going directly to Dorset Blind.
“This show isn’t just about art — it’s about connection,”
Dakers says: “To support those who live with limited or no sight through a medium that celebrates vision, contrast, and perception — that’s a powerful moment.”
Visitors to the exhibition can expect a broad range of pieces, from large-scale portraits that burst with life to more introspective, delicate studies that explore vulnerability and resilience.
The interplay of oil paint and layered texture in his canvases offers a near-sculptural quality — something that both seasoned collectors and newcomers to the art world will appreciate.
The Green House Hotel, known for its commitment to creativity and community, provides the ideal setting for this special event in what is a beautifully located hotel in Bournemouth.
It features a two-rosette restaurant with absolutely fantastic food and a truly exceptional team—the staff there are incredibly professional, warm, and attentive, making the entire experience even more memorable.
Whether you are an admirer of fine art, a supporter of local causes, or simply curious to experience something new, this one-off exhibition promises to be a highlight of the cultural calendar.
