Pippy Houldsworth Gallery

Founded in London in 1999, Pippy Houldsworth Gallery is a leading contemporary art gallery with an international roster of emerging and established artists. Since moving to its current premises in 2011, it has focused on greater representation of female artists and intergenerational crossover.

In its micro-project space, The Box, the gallery has presented solo projects with major artists including Susan Hiller, Martha Rosler, Yinka Shonibare CBE, RA, and Alina Szapocznikow.
