waterside contemporary is committed to developing an ambitious and vibrant multidisciplinary and cross-generational programme. Representing a portfolio of UK and international artists, the gallery brings institutional-quality exhibitions to London art audiences and market and supports the artists through curatorial projects and international art fairs.
waterside contemporary's programme supports determined and engaged art practices, and exhibitions and projects encompass practices that pertain to and stem from political periphery. In parallel, the gallery engages with conceptually-driven work of mid-career European and UK artists. An international commitment allows the gallery to foreground current and historical overseas debates in a London context. The gallery works closely with its artists on developing projects in London and abroad.
waterside contemporary has been supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. Our exhibitions have been supported by the Royal Norwegian Embassy, the Romanian Cultural Institute, Czech Centre London, The Flemish Authorities, Mondriaan Fonds, Swedenborg Society, Caspian Arts Foundation, Adam Mickewicz Institute, Polish Cultural Institute, Polska! Year, Pro Helvetia, Swiss Cultural Fund in Britain, Center for Icelandic Arts, Austrian Cultural Forum, St Katherine and Shadwell Trust, and Société Générale. We would like to thank Hana Birks, Maxa Zoller and Govinda Singh, Mr James Ellery and Wonder, Crown Paints and Axis Communications.
