Zabludowicz Collection Shuts London Project Space After 16 Years to Focus on International Expansion

The Zabludowicz Collection will close its London project space at 176 Prince of Wales Road on December 17, 2023, following the conclusion of the current exhibition 'All Crescendo, No Reward.' Founders Anita and Poju Zabludowicz announced the closure this morning, explaining that the decision reflects a strategic shift toward expanding the collection's international reach. Established in 2007, the North London venue has operated for over 15 years as a free public program space dedicated to supporting artists and sharing the collection. The closure will result in significant staff reductions. Moving forward, the collection plans to increase artwork loans to institutions and enhance its digital presence. The founders noted that institutional programming has become more inclusive of early-career artists in recent years, prompting them to reassess their focus. Their original goal was to create a supportive environment for artists and provide diverse programming for public benefit.
