La Galleria Pall Mall

Art galleries in London's west end
La Galleria and the ROA Gallery are two contemporary art galleries within the Royal Opera Arcade, the Arcade was designed by John Nash completed in 1818 , which would cast some doubt on the burlington arcade's claim of being the first in London !

La Galleria was a project started in december 2006, after extensive renovations (the buildings were previously occupied by Farlows prior to their move further down Pall Mall, and prior to that the larger space was The Bank of New Zealand) the Galleries were opened to the public in March 2007. It has quickly established itself on the London art scene as one of the prime private Galleries in the Capital, hosting exhibitions by, to name just a few : Blake , Anna Izzo , Emma Delves-Broughton , Leonardo Lucchi. La Galleria also has an auction licence and has been the site of auctions by such established auction houses as MacDougall, Rosebery and Kerry Taylor who recently auctioned the wardrobe of Daphne Guinness. Group shows have included an exhibition by The Malaysian National Gallery to celebrate 50 years and the first ever european exhibition of art from DPRK.

Exhibitions change on a regular basis and you are advised to visit the websites (and indeed the galleries) on a regular basis to keep abreast of up-coming exhibitions.
