About Our Hub

The Concept Space was founded in March 2016 with a vision of being a hub for artists, curators and collectors.

It is a unique platform for artists, curators and collectors to express their passion for contemporary art with program of talks, discussions, projects, residencies, exhibitions, installations and various ambitious collaborations.

Housed in a semi-industrial facility which has been transformed into a spacious 1800 sq ft of exhibition and project space to show works including off-site projects by emerging and established British and international artists.

With emphasis on art practice and to encourage engagement of a new generation of artists, curators and collectors of contemporary art. The Space armed with the freedom and flexibility to run a parallel program of cultural and commercial agenda with the art practice and the artist at its core makes it a unique proposition.
