Studio West is a new cultural hot spot in Notting Hill, showing work by emerging and newly established London based artists, offering them support, mentoring and hosting opportunities that showcase the most exciting upcoming talents.

Caroline Boseley has a unique and personal vision for her newest enterprise, planning to engage fully and authentically with the local community, cultural organisations and young people. The gallery will enrich and develop the local area and create a comfortable, and welcoming space for engaging with contemporary art. She is excited for the gallery to take up residence in such a culturally rich and diverse area and to work productively within its environs. Studio West offers a new approach to commercial, contemporary art – it puts artists needs at the forefront and nurtures an awareness of the local community within which it operates.

The gallery will opened on 11 November 2021 with its beautiful  inaugural exhibition from artist couple Victoria Cantons and Xu Yang, which runs until the 15th December 2021.

Studio West will engage with the local arts ecology including young people, cultural organisations within the borough, creative producers and collectors, building relationships which develop those involved on every level, and nurture a shared passion for contemporary art.The space is stunning and elegant, yet welcoming and warm – ensuring those who visit feel valued and curious. Moving deliberately away from the sometimes cold, austerity of art galleries, Boseley has chosen a light grey for the walls – a small detail which perhaps encapsulates her championing of an approachable and accessible environment. She plans to showcase varied practices from diverse individuals, allowing the gallery to be a location where visitors can see the art being made live by exciting emerging artists, learn about their practice and promote positive discussions about the future of art.

The gallery will be more than simply an exhibition space, as it will offer a variety of live events, including workshops, talks and screenings. All events will be accessible and open to all – encouraging new networks to be forged between industry professionals, artists, local people and art enthusiasts.
