White Cube

Pretty simple space, showing contemporary art. They use their simple rooms well, with art that literally climbs the walls. Check their site to see what’s on display.

They’re really strict about food and drink in here. But I totally get it — those white walls are pristine as heck. But don’t think that this is just any fuddy duddy gallery — it’s modern art everywhere to shock and confuse you. I liked it and loved interpreting the art on display. There are some really interesting things going on here, but since I’m not an artist, I’m not ready to comment. In any case, there are amazingly high ceilings here. Love it.

The staff were very friendly though the place was empty except for a couple of pieces of «artwork» which were definitely not to my taste.

The owners of the White Cube gallery have taken the «white cube» theory of hanging art on white walls literally. This is the third gallery of this name, after Hoxton Square (unfortunately closed) and Masons Yard in Mayfair. The sheer size of this converted warehouse is impressive in its own right, and I particularly love the 9×9×9 cubic space at its heart — a true white cube!
The artists represented by this renowned gallery for contemporary art are just as impressive, and exhibitions are of museum quality. Anthony Gormley was particularly breathtaking, and I’m glad I caught Theaster Gates before it closed yesterday.
Unlike many commercial galleries, the White Cube opens on Sundays and provides a perfect excuse for a stroll down Bermondsey Street.

Fantastic place to spend 30mins if you’re in the area. It’s a commercial gallery but most visitors are not there to buy.
A really cool venue with constantly changing exhibits means there is it keeps you interested throughout the year. It’s contemporary so works may not always be to everyone’s taste.
It’s been a brilliant addition to bermondsey street and I would recommend you pop in if you are in the area.

Cool space to pop into when you’re in Bermondsey! I stopped by for the Christian Marclay exhibition recently and it’s a lot of fun.
Big dark room for silent onomatopoeia exploding on all four walls, and the Pub Crawl piece in the hallway is entertaining since your shadow lines up so perfectly with the projections.
Odd musical performance art in the South Gallery. Way too serious for what is essentially tinkling glasses with stones and water.

I absolutely loved the Anselm Kiefer exhibit «Il mistero delle cattedrali», which greatly employed the big spaces offered by this White Cube gallery.
They also have a nice projection room where they screen a film for free every Sunday, each time chosen by a different contemporary artist.

This is the newest branch of the White Cube collective, down in Bermondsey, south of the river by London Bridge. It’s bigger than the rest and veritable epic. Work here will never be anything short of amazing. They did launch Damien Hirst after all.
