  • Summary

  • Episode 57 of ‘All About Art’: New Kids On The Block - Interviews with 5 Emerging Gallerists in London (Hew Hood, Helen Neven, Maribelle Bierens, Cedric Bardawil, & Jack Trodd) In the past two years in London (2022 and 2023) we have seen a massive surge in small galleries opening across the city. Instead of interviewing one emerging gallerist about why they chose now to take the plunge and open their gallery, I had the opportunity to speak to 5 new gallerists in London. I ask each gallerist 4 questions: Introduce themselves and say more about their gallery.What inspired them to open a gallery in London.What type of art the gallery strives to champion and how they have positioned themselves in the growing gallery landscape in the city.What is one thing they wish they could tell their younger selves when entering the sector as a gallerist.  I start off at [05:22] in North London to see Hew Hood at Hew Hood Gallery in Islington At [17:35] I then went East to see Helen Neven at Neven Gallery in Bethnal Green At [28:08] back down to Fitzovia is where I visited Maribelle Bierens at Night Cafe Gallery At [38:20] to Soho to see Cedric Bardawil at his eponymous gallery up on the first floor of a building on Old Compton Street At [48:46] I sat down with Jack Trodd who runs BWG Gallery, a nomadic gallery that had a home on 13 Soho Square right off of Oxford Street in 2023 but has conducted exhibitions all around London, north, south, east, and west, and will continue to do so in 2024.
