Hollybush-Gardens

Hollybush Gardens opened in September 2005 in a small unit in Bethnal Green.  In 2013 we moved to a larger building in Clerkenwell allowing us to expand our programme to include events, performances and curated shows bringing into view artists not often seen together. This visual thinking has become important to us and curated events bring different audiences into a space of exchange. In 2017 we took on another smaller space within our building for exhibitions that run parallel to the main space . 

We work long term and in-depth with artists we represent, building careers with artists including Charlotte Prodger, winner of the 2018 Turner Prize and representative of Scotland at the 2019 Venice Biennale; Lubaina Himid, winner of the 2017 Turner Prize; Andrea Büttner, 2017 Turner Prize nominee;  Johanna Billing; Knut Henrik Henriksen, nominee of the Lorck Schive Prize, Norway, 2017; and Falke Pisano, winner of the 2013 Prix de Rome. Our main aim is to support artists through ongoing conversation, provide platforms to show their work, to place artworks in world class public and private collections, and to sustain artists' positions in relation to curators and the world of museums and institutions. 

Our backgrounds in curating, writing and teaching have informed our approach to the gallery.  We believe that nurturing and holding on to a sense of curiosity is highly relevant to the context and the sustainability of a space that allows for experimentation with ideas. Since moving to our current location we have begun representing artists of an older generation who have not worked with galleries despite long careers.  These artists include; Lubaina Himid, Anne Tallentire, Charlotte Johannesson, Joachim Schmid and Claudette Johnson. Uncompromising in their approach they bring with them museum quality works that provide an interesting and serious context for the younger generation in the program such as; Jumana Manna,  Reto Pulfer and Ruth Proctor.
