Blow de la Barra shows the works of a small number of international artists, often introducing them to the London scene for the first time. The concept behind the place is one of progressive conceptualism, regardless of the medium the artists are working with. Be it neon sculpture or hyper realist photography, the gallery performs well to further its passion for breaking conventions.

Although they don't publish or print material, the blogs and society pages on their website are definitely worth having a look at for cutting edge info on the scene.

Please note: Blow de la Barra is now closed. If you are looking for contemporary art galleries nearby, why not try Simon Lee or Karsten Schubert?
