Founded in 2012 in London, Richard Saltoun Gallery specialises in Modern and Post-War art, with a particular focus on rediscovering the work of important yet under-recognised women artists. The gallery presents these artists through exhibitions at its three international locations—Dover Street in London, Via Margutta in Rome, and the Upper East Side in Manhattan—as well as online exhibitions, publications, events, and its participation in art fairs around the world.

The gallery is considered a leader in its representation of women avant-garde pioneers of the 1960s and ‘70s, such as Eleanor Antin, Annegret Soltau and Renate Bertlmann, as well as a younger generation of female artists including Silvia Giambrone and Florence Peake.

The gallery regularly collaborates with esteemed curators such as Eva Brioschi, Flavia Frigeri, Tamar Garb, and Catherine de Zegher to realise institutional-level exhibitions. It is widely recognised as a leader in representing women avant-garde pioneers from the 1960s and ’70s, including Eleanor Antin, Annegret Soltau, and Renate Bertlmann. The gallery also champions a younger generation of female artists, such as Silvia Giambrone and Florence Peake.

The roster has an equally strong emphasis on established contemporary artists whose practices engage with the politics of migration and the complexities ofdiasporic identity, with artists Fathi Hassan, Vivienne Koorland, Everlyn Nicodemus, Berni Searle and Jan Wade amongst others.

Richard Saltoun Gallery also preserves the legacy of artists through estate representation, including Helen Chadwick, Romany Eveleigh, Franca Maranò, Erica Rutherford, Juliana Seraphim, Jo Spence, and Barbara Levittoux-Żwiderska, among others. The gallery acts as a consultant to major museums and public institutions and advises private and corporate collections. It is dedicated to documenting the work of its artists through the production of publications and frequently hosts talks, screenings, and performances
