Simon Lee Gallery

Simon Lee Gallery is a contemporary art gallery located at 12 Berkeley Street, Mayfair London. The gallery was founded in 2002 by the owner Simon Lee. 

The primary focus of the gallery is to represent artists of diverse generations whose practices range from painting and sculpture, to photography and film, while still sharing a broad interest in and exploration of the conceptual. The gallery provides a significant London platform, for artists to present their work regularly to a British and an international public, thereby broadening an awareness and understanding of their practice. The gallery is internationally recognised and is one of the leading contemporary art galleries in London. The gallery also regularly punctuates its programme with historical shows of artists such as Donald Judd as well commissioning notable curators to curate annual shows which enables the gallery to present a fresh perspective of current shifts in contemporary art practice and thought, and to continue a broader dialogue with artists outside of the gallery programme.

Simon Lee was a former Director of Gimpels Fils (1989-1992),London, Anthony d’Offay Gallery (1992-1996), London and 11 Duke Street, London (1996-2001).
