The Redfern Gallery, Art gallery in Cork Street, London, England
The Redfern Gallery is an art gallery on Cork Street in central London, showing modern and contemporary works by British artists. The space is made up of several interconnected rooms displaying paintings, sculptures, and photographs from different periods.
The gallery opened in December 1923 as an artists' cooperative on Old Bond Street. It moved to Cork Street in 1936 and has operated there ever since as a regular exhibition venue.
The gallery was among the first in Britain to exhibit linocut prints, giving artists like Cyril Edward Power and Sybil Andrews their first public platform. Walking through the rooms today, visitors can still trace that tradition in the works on display.
The gallery sits on Cork Street, a short road in London's West End known for its concentration of art galleries and easy to reach on foot. Exhibitions change regularly, so it is worth checking what is on before visiting.
Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth both showed early work here before they became widely known. At the time, they were largely unknown, and the gallery was one of the first spaces to give them room.
