Flowers Gallery Cork Street

Flowers Gallery opened at 21 Cork Street, Mayfair, in 2000. The space is the gallery’s current base in the West End, where Angela Flowers (1932–2023) first opened on Lisle Street on 10 February 1970, above the Artists International Association.

A West End lineage

The Lisle Street room lasted just over a year and a half. In 1971 the gallery moved into former basement stables on Portland Mews in Soho, and in 1978 to Tottenham Mews, first below and then next door to Annely Juda, staying ten years. In the mid-1990s a small temporary space on Silver Place kept a presence in Soho until the move to Cork Street.

Matthew Flowers, Angela’s son, now directs the gallery, which also runs Flowers Gallery Kingsland Road in Shoreditch and a space in Hong Kong.
