Revision as of 20:13, 31 October 2018
Alison Jacques Gallery is a contemporary art gallery in Fitzrovia, established in 2004 by Alison Jacques.
Originally sited in a small townhouse off Bond Street, London W1, it relocated in 2007 to a 3,500-square-foot (330 m2) space at 16-18 Berners Street opposite the Sanderson Hotel in Fitzrovia. The new space, designed by Mike Rundell and Associates, has over 5 metres of ceiling height.
Jacques was formerly News Editor of Flash Art Magazine in Milan and Curator of the British School at Rome, and trained as an art dealer with Leslie Waddington in Cork Street. Since opening her own gallery in 2004, Alison Jacques has developed an exhibition program of both unknown and established artists, championing the estates of artists including Maria Bartuszova, Lygia Clark, Roy Oxlade, Dorothea Tanning and Hannah Wilke who had not previously had representation in the UK.
In 1999, Alison Jacques became the first young dealer to work with the estate of Robert Mapplethorpe, and continues to be the sole representative of his Estate in the UK. Jacques's curatorial approach and seemingly uncommercial focus on unknown bodies of work by Mapplethorpe such as his early Polaroids from the 70s or his unique works and sculptures which were little known and previously not exhibited, has resulted in the building of a strong commercial market for Mapplethorpe as an artist rather than as a photographer per se.[citation needed]
In 2017, the gallery represented Maria Bartuszová, Irma Blank, Lygia Clark, Dan Fischer, Fernanda Gomes, Sheila Hicks, Birgit Jürgenssen, Ian Kiaer, Takuro Kuwata, Graham Little, Robert Mapplethorpe, Ana Mendieta, Ryan Mosley, Roy Oxlade, Alessandro Raho, Dorothea Tanning, Juergen Teller, Erika Verzutti, Hannah Wilke, Catherine Yass and Thomas Zipp.[1]
The gallery often holds events[2][3] and talks in conjunction with the current exhibition, with well-known curators[4] and critics.[5]
The gallery has published books including Lygia Clark, Sheila Hicks, Dorothea Tanning and Hannah Wilke as well as supporting museum monographs on the gallery artists.
