Alison Jacques
London, W1S 3NG United Kingdom Get Directions
Alison Jacques is a London based gallery that, for more than two decades, has developed a distinctive curatorial approach centered on pioneering, historically significant, and often under acknowledged artists. The program is defined by intergenerational juxtapositions that place artists from different periods in dialogue, creating new contexts for understanding both historical legacies and contemporary practice. Through this model, the gallery has built an international profile grounded in rigorous research, long term commitment, and carefully structured exhibitions.
Since 1999, the gallery has represented the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation and has also been a key platform for the work of the American photographer Gordon Parks. Its estate representation includes figures such as Pacita Abad, Maria Bartuszová, Lygia Clark, Nicola L., Donald Locke, Ana Mendieta, Roy Oxlade, Dorothea Tanning, Lenore Tawney, and Hannah Wilke. Alongside these estates, Alison Jacques represents a diverse group of living artists including Sophie Barber, the Gee’s Bend Quiltmakers, Sheila Hicks, Ian Kiaer, Takuro Kuwata, Graham Little, Veronica Ryan, Sagarika Sundaram, Erika Verzutti, and Alison Wilding, reinforcing the gallery’s commitment to expanding art historical narratives through both scholarship and exhibition making.
