Young female gallerists reshape London's art scene

Ahead of London Gallery Weekend, five contemporary art spaces led by young women are gaining prominence. These gallerists—including Hannah Barry, founder of Hannah Barry Gallery in Peckham; Candice Hickman of Candice Hickman Gallery in Mayfair; and others—are introducing fresh perspectives and emerging artists to the city's art landscape. Their spaces, often located outside traditional hubs, focus on underrepresented voices and experimental practices. The article highlights how these gallerists are challenging the male-dominated gallery scene and fostering community engagement. London Gallery Weekend, running from June 2-4, 2023, will feature these spaces alongside established institutions.
