Founded in 2012, Richard Saltoun Gallery is based in Mayfair, London and Via Margutta, Rome. The gallery specialises in post war and contemporary art, with a specialism on Feminist, Conceptual and Performance artists from the 1960s onwards. It is guided by a strong focus on rediscovering the work of important yet under-recognised artists through presentations at its central locations, a comprehensive series of online exhibitions, and participation in art fairs around the world.
Since its inception, Richard Saltoun Gallery has been driven by an interest in social responsibility and is now widely recognised for its critically and socially-engaged programme. In 2019, the gallery launched a year-long initiative titled 100% Women that aimed to address gender inequality in the art world and encourage wider industry action through debate, dialogue and collaboration. It is now a leader in its representation of female artists, from avant-garde pioneers of the 1960s and ‘70s, such as Eleanor ANTIN, Renate BERTLMANN, Helen CHADWICK and Jo SPENCE, to a younger generation of female artists including Silvia GIAMBRONE and Marinella SENATORE. It continues to support female artists through extensive research, partnerships and solo presentations at the galleries and online.
