Sadie Coles HQ Davies Street

Sadie Coles HQ is a London-based contemporary art gallery representing around fifty established and emerging international artists. The gallery opened in London in 1997, with its inaugural exhibition – of new paintings by American painter John Currin – presented in parallel with an offsite show by British artist Sarah Lucas, The Law, at St John Street. This pairing established the international breadth of the gallery's programme, which it has since expanded upon over the past two decades. Since its inception, Sadie Coles HQ has operated from a variety of spaces, mounting numerous off-site projects throughout the city and abroad; most recently in Los Angeles and Mayfair in 2020 with a significant new video installation by Martine Syms titled Ugly Plymouths. In September 2013, Sadie Coles HQ opened its largest space at 62 Kingly Street in Soho, a second space at 1 Davies Street in Mayfair designed by 6a Architects in 2015, and in April this year a third space at 8 Bury Street in St James’s.
