Having curated exhibitions and represented artists since 2006, CHARLIE SMITH london established its gallery space near Hoxton Square in Old Street in October 2009 with the objective of running an exceptional exhibition programme of dedicated one person exhibitions and dynamic curated group shows.

The gallery’s approach is collaborative and curatorial with an emphasis on work that challenges, seduces, confronts and consoles. Beauty, death, horror, sexuality, the historical and mythological are common interests.

CHARLIE SMITH london’s aim is to discover and promote vital artists, and introduce them to local and international markets, creating a global synergy for like-minded and progressive artists, collectors, galleries and curators.

Director Zavier Ellis is also co-founder of THE FUTURE CAN WAIT and has curated exhibitions in Berlin, Helsinki, Klaipeda, London, Los Angeles, Naples, New York and Rome; and has placed work in notable collections including The Saatchi Gallery, Javier Baz, Peter Nobel, Jean Pigozzi, David Roberts and Thomas Rusche.
