After establishing itself as a leading force in conceptual art, this always on-trend gallery relocated from the East End to Fitzrovia in 2008, more than doubling its exhibition space. The new gallery was designed by architects David Kohn, and is a renovation of the ground floor and basement of an office building constructed in the 1950s. Stuart Shave Modern Art was the first gallery to open in 1998 on Vyner Street which has since become the East End art scene's main drag. His arrival in the West End marked the beginning of a new phase in the gallery's development, reinforced by the success of artist Nigel Cooke's opening show, 'The New Accursed Art Club'. Other artists represented by Stuart Shave include conceptualist/minimalist Tom Burr, Kenneth Anger, Richard Aldrich, Matthias Bitzer, Jean-Luc Blanc, Shannon Bool, Marc Quinn, Charles Ricketts, Félicien Rops and Eva Rothschild.
Unmonumental sculpture, made from daily detritus but suggestive of social spaces.
