FRIEZE NO.9 CORK STREET NO.9 CORK STREET Launching in October 2021, No.9 Cork Street is a hub for international galleries in the historic heart of Mayfair, London. Designed by architecture studio Matheson Whiteley, housed across two converted townhouses and spread across three floors, No.9 Cork Street will host short-term exhibitions and projects organised by the world’s leading galleries. The space will provide a flexible, collaborative environment for galleries to connect with London audiences year round. Each participating gallery will benefit from a fully equipped gallery space, a private viewing room and a range of digital and social media services designed to enhance the visibility of their project at No.9 Cork Street. The event space is also available to host artist talks, screenings and receptions. No.9 Cork Street aims to foster synergies across our community of participating galleries. We have coordinated the calendar dates for each exhibition space to encourage collaboration amongst participants and explore connections across projects.

For nearly 100 years, the street has housed some of the most significant galleries and exhibitions in modern and contemporary art history. It was the heart of the British art world in the 20th century, introducing the UK to surrealism and artists such as Paul Klee and Joan Miró. Today, it has one of the highest concentrations of galleries in London, making it as important a destination for art lovers now as it was then. 03 | No.9 Cork Street GALLERY SPECIFICATIONS Spread over 600 m2 / 6,460 ft2, No.9 Cork Street is home FIRST FLOOR to three gallery spaces and accompanying viewing rooms.
