Gallery Presentation
Patrick Heide Contemporary Art was established by Patrick Heide and sprung from a project space with pop-up exhibitions across Europe. In 2007 the gallery opened its doors in an eighteenth-century Georgian townhouse in Marylebone’s Church Street with an exhibition of now internationally established Korean artist Minjung Kim. Since its inception, the gallery has been in particular dedicated to the medium of drawing and its various practices, spanning from the process-based approaches of David Connearn and Thomas Müller to the alienating photocopy drawings of Alex Hamilton and the large-scale watercolours of Barbara Nicholls. Currently, the gallery represents and works with over 30 international artists whose practice, besides drawings, includes painting, sculpture, video, and installation. In 2014 the gallery introduced the Breeder platform to foster emerging artists. In 2022 the gallery opened a new collaborative space in Brussels. Patrick Heide Contemporary Art has participated in international art fairs, including TEFAF Maastricht, Drawing Now Paris, Untitled Miami, and Frieze Masters.
