W139, Art gallery in red light district, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

W139 features a spacious exhibition area inside a former theatre building, allowing artists to create large-scale contemporary art installations.

Five young artists established W139 in October 1979 by taking over an empty theatre space on Warmoesstraat to counter commercial art institutions.

The gallery maintains an artist-run approach, enabling national and international artists to organize exhibitions that expand contemporary art boundaries.

Located at Warmoesstraat 139, the gallery opens daily from noon until 6 PM and provides free admission to all contemporary art exhibitions.

The gallery received the Amsterdam Prize of the Arts for its continuous support of experimental art forms and emerging artists since 1979.
