Draft:Saatchi Yates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saatchi Yates is a commercial art gallery in London, England, founded by Arthur Yates and Phoebe Saatchi Yates (daughter of Charles Saatchi), which opened in London’s Mayfair in October 2020. Since its inception, the gallery has represented and exhibited new artists, staging large-scale exhibitions and presenting contemporary art drawn from private collections.[1]

The couple opened their first gallery on Cork Street in Mayfair in 2020,[2] before moving to their current location at 14 Bury Street, St James's in 2023.[3]

Exhibitions[edit]

In January 2024, Saatchi Yates presented the first solo exhibition of the artist Neil Stokoe since his death in 2019. Stokoe was a friend of Francis Bacon and contemporary of David Hockney, Frank Bowling, Patrick Caulfield, RB Kitaj and Allen Jones, but did not garner the same recognition as his peers. The retrospective displayed 14 of his paintings, and, along with a show at the Redfern Gallery in 2015, is one of a handful of times his work has been publicly exhibited.[4]
