The Russian Club Gallery

The Russian Club Gallery

about: 

The Russian Club (named after the site's previous incarnation as a Russian pool room and bar) was set-up as an art gallery and commercial fashion photography studios in 2008. The gallery was programmed by artist Matt Golden and focussed on pairing artists for exhibitions, as well as a small number of group shows with invited curators. The gallery was funded by the commercial photographic studios and the kind and generous effort of each of the exhibiting artists.

Golden ended the gallery programme in 2012 but has since curated Russian Club exhibitions at Annely Juda Fine Art and artists commissions in Rollacoaster Magazine.

The Russian Club continues to run as commercial photography studios as well as being the artistic base for Matt and Natsue Golden.

Drop City

about: 

Drop City is a gallery established in Newcastle upon Tyne in Autumn 2014.
The original space has been redeveloped and Drop City now operates nomadically, between Newcastle & Dusseldorf.

Developing a model that capitalises on the varied experiences of its founders; an independent curator and three artists, Drop City’s programme explores the gaps and potential plasticity between several models of exhibition space and gallery, revolving around the individual work of each founding member. Through an inclusive collaborative structure, Drop City aims to build an exhibition context that is driven by our engagement and dialogue with other artists. Single works, solo and collaborative exhibitions and live activities all feature, as well as publications and international co-operations. To date Drop City has presented guest exhibitions in the European cities of Wien and Brussels.

Drop City represents and supports contemporary artists and is committed to the production, presentation, mediation, and support of their work, promoting workable exchanges between UK based artists and art organisations and those working internationally.

Since vacating the South Street space, Drop City have become a nomadic space, organising shows locally, nationally and internationally in Vienna, Brussels and Dusseldorf. Sam & Ellie, two of the Drop City founders relocated to Dusseldorf early in 2016 from where Drop City have been organising and curating shows in the Hotel Ufer. Forthcoming exhibitions include the second half of a gallery exchange with MAUVE, an artist led space in Vienna.

history of the site: 

In 1823 George and Robert Stephenson, along with three partners, opened the world’s first purpose built locomotive works on Forth Banks, Newcastle upon Tyne. Robert, at the age of 19, was the Managing Partner.

The famous locomotives “Locomotion” and “Rocket” were built here and the works subsequently exported locomotives to developing railways all over the world - often the first to be seen in those countries.

about: 

&model is a curatorial project established in 2012 by James Chinneck, Chris Bloor and Derek Horton. We have run a continuous exhibition programme (from January 2013 onwards) sometimes working alongside guest curators and showing a diverse range of international artists. We are continuing to use our three-floor 19th century building in central Leeds to develop projects and events that bring contemporary artists and others to work alongside some of the city’s emerging practitioners. Occasional artist residencies complement our exhibition programme. Use of the building is enabled by the Leeds charity RTTA (Regeneration Through The Arts). All our projects, so far involving well over 200 artists are documented in the archive section of our website - http://www.andmodel.com/archive.htm

Kingsgate Workshops

Kingsgate Studios: Invite Winter Show 08

about: 

Kingsgate Workshops is a multi-use art space housed within a labyrinthine Victorian factory, providing affordable workspace for an exciting mix of artists, makers and designers.

Kingsgate Workshops’ Public Programme encourages experimentation, production and critical discourse. We support a crossover between disciplines, an exchange of skills and the development of critical and timely conversations about process, image making and object making. Our Project Space aims to profile a diverse range of contemporary national and international artists with a focus on emerging talent.

The Public Programme is generously supported by Arts Council England. As part of the programme, artists are provided with a free studio space for six months, a small stipend and professional support in creating a new body of work for exhibition at Kingsgate Project Space.

history of the site: 

Kingsgate Workshops is a converted 19th century warehouse providing studio and workshop space for over 50 artists and crafts people. Located in West Hampstead and close to Kilburn High Road, it was first built by John Allen and Sons as their builders workshops, with a saw mill to produce the large number of doors and windows they needed to construct many of the surrounding streets.
After John Allen and Sons, the building became a furniture depository, and then was used as a sheet metal folding factory and various other businesses until it became derelict and empty. In 1978, a small group of local people put forward a scheme to Camden Council to stop it being demolished and give it a new lease of life as an artist’s studio complex.
