Lisson is located in such a vibrant and interesting part of London - so close to Regents Park for Frieze London and Frieze Masters, but also close to really special places to discover!
enjoy your time in London, and hope you can find the time to visit us and see the incredible pair of exhibitions at our London galleries - see GalleriesNow for full details!
established in 1967 by Nicholas Logsdail, Lisson Gallery is one of the most influential and longest-running international contemporary art galleries in the world, supporting more than seventy international artists across spaces in London, New York, Los Angeles, Shanghai, and Beijing
we are lucky that we have wonderful neighbours, collectively known as the Lisson Grove Galleries. When friends visit from overseas I always encourage them to walk a few blocks north and visit The Showroom (almost 40 years old now and still as effervescent as any start-up) and almost next door the Palmer Gallery exhibiting the best of an emerging scene.
adjacent to the gallery are many small restaurants and purveyors of the cuisine of the Middle East and Arabic world – when I have the time for lunch beyond the gallery, I stroll down to the top of Marylebone High Street and settle at Fischer’s - welcoming neighbourhood restaurant serving classic Viennese cuisine - it’s also ideal if you want to escape from a tent in Regents Park for some European old world charm
when I need the best of London, I rely on Jeremy King and his team at the classic Arlington in St James’s - known for many years as Le Caprice. It’s been re-invented and re-invigorated and I have never had anything but a wonderful experience when dining.
London is a city built on a river, and yet it is often missed when in town for a few days, so do yourself a favour – head to Toklas Bakery and enjoy coffee, pastries or a light lunch, followed by a walk along the Thames and across the bridge to Tate Modern (yes, it may rain, but that is what umbrellas are for).
and, as sometimes the heart of the city doesn’t tell the full story, I am lucky enough to live near the UNESCO World Heritage Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew – it is a short but magical escape from the centre of London and currently hosting an exquisite Henry Moore exhibition scattered across its wonderful grounds. If down in the neighbourhood, don’t miss the chance to eat at the unique Petersham Nurseries in Richmond, rarely has lunch in a garden centre been so spectacular!
