After a period of renovation and anticipation, Well Hung Gallery is back. Located in the heart of Hoxton, the newly transformed space at 239 Hoxton Street is ready to welcome London’s art lovers, collectors, and curious wanderers with ‘Revival’, a major group exhibition featuring over 50 contemporary artists.
Revival marks not just a reopening of on of the best galleries in Shoreditch, but a recommitment to bold curation, emerging talent, and everything we love about East London’s art scene.
Back to Hoxton roots — and better than ever
For those who’ve followed Well Hung Gallery through its journey across pop-ups, collabs, and online showcases, this permanent space is a homecoming. Hoxton’s creative pulse, gritty charm, and no-nonsense attitude have always aligned with the gallery’s ethos: accessible art, raw talent, and unapologetic creativity.
The revamped gallery isn’t just sleeker — it’s smarter, more flexible, and tailor-made for experimental exhibitions, intimate previews, and the kind of conversations you can only have in a space that lives and breathes art.
Revival: 50 artists, one powerful cross-section
Revival is not your typical group show. Each artist — from Well Hung regulars to rising stars — presents a single standout work, creating an electric patchwork of styles, voices, and narratives.
Expect everything from hyper-detailed portraiture and wild abstract textures to street-inspired graphics and tongue-in-cheek pop surrealism. It’s a curated chaos that reflects London’s current moment: post-pandemic grit, fresh ambition, and a yearning for visual honesty.
The artist list remains a surprise until the show opens — but expect names that already turn heads at London art fairs alongside emerging talents ready to shake things up.
A space for bold ideas and bolder conversations
What makes Well Hung Gallery stand out is its no-pretence attitude. It’s always been a space that makes room for the unexpected — whether that’s sculpture, fine art, illustration, or politically-charged mixed media. And now, with a permanent base in Hoxton, the gallery is ready to double down on supporting independent artists and giving them a platform that’s as flexible as it is fearless.
Revival isn’t just an exhibition. It’s a reminder. A call to the city’s creatives, collectors, and curious minds that Hoxton and Shoreditch still leads the charge in London’s visual culture scene.

Hoxton’s creative energy is alive and well
Well Hung’s return feels more than timely — it feels necessary. In a cultural landscape where many galleries are downsizing or going digital, the choice to reinvest in a physical, community-driven art space speaks volumes.
For Shoreditch’s endlessly curious audience — from designers and DJs to tattoo artists, stylists, and screenprinters — this is a spot to see what’s next. Whether you’re collecting, critiquing, or just browsing between coffee shops, Revival is a must-see moment in London’s spring art calendar.
