The Approach Gallery, Art gallery in Bethnal Green, London, United Kingdom.
The Approach Gallery is a contemporary exhibition space above a public house in East London that displays rotating shows and installations by international artists. The venue uses its location above the pub to create an unusual mix where art and everyday social space connect.
The gallery was founded in 1997 by Jake Miller and several artists as a space for solo exhibitions of London-based creators. Over time it developed into a gallery presenting work from artists around the world.
The space displays work from both established and emerging artists through painting, sculpture, and experimental contemporary forms. Visitors experience a rotating program that focuses on how modern artists explore different ideas and techniques.
The space is open Tuesday through Saturday and admission is free for everyone. The location in Bethnal Green makes it easy to reach as part of a visit to other galleries and shops in the neighborhood.
For a period between 2007 and 2009, the gallery operated two locations at the same time in different parts of London, each running its own exhibition program. This dual presence allowed for more ambitious and diverse programming during those years.
