White Cube Mason's Yard on Postcard

"White Cube Mason’s Yard plays host to some of the most innovative international exhibitions in the world. Built from an electrical substation round the corner from founder Jay Jopling’s first gallery on Ryder Street, the Mason’s Yard space is the first free-standing structure to be built in the historic St James’s area for more than 30 years. Only ever showing an artist once, the private views that spill out over the cobbled yard are particularly special." - dn&co.

Lovely art gallery, great space on 2 floors, always something new. Staffs are cool, allowing you to browse without judgemental or closely watched. Went for the Lynne Drexler exhibition that was interesting and cheerful. Nearest Tube Station - Piccadilly Circus or Green Park.

Excellent commercial contemporary art gallery a short walk from Piccadilly Circus tube station. The Mason’s Yard gallery was constructed on the site of an electricity sub-station and opened in 2006. near the original Duke Street space. It was the first free-standing structure to have been built in the historic St James’s area for more than 30 years and consists of galleries on the ground floor and in the basement (a lift is available). Entry to the gallery is free. Our most recent visit was to view the exhibition of work by the brilliant American/Swiss artist Christian Marclay. The exhibition included an excellent video called "Doors" which is about an hour long. It cuts together film clips of people entering and leaving rooms and is engrossing.

An interesting space. We went to see Christian Marclay’s Doors film but the space itself was an interesting building arrived at through a narrow ginnel (passageway) - brilliant in terms of denouement. Whilst I found the film interesting, I was over the novelty pretty quickly. Certainly I can respect the work required to select the clips to tie together to make the film, however without a narrative, the medium and work was made for the artist rather than the viewer: maybe I need to change my perspective of the work??

Small gallery on two levels, tucked away from the hustle of Piccadilly. It’s a short walk from the Ritz Hotel. Free Entry. A lift and stairs between floors. Interesting shops and pubs nearby, including the former Indica Gallery (where John met Yoko) and the Scotch of St. James, a famous club in the 60’s which hosted everyone from the Beatles to Hendrix, the Stones and every top model and photographer. (Gallery Currently closed until 2 December 2020)

Was recommended this gallery by a dear friend of mine, whom I normally trust with their taste exceptionally. However when I entered this establishment, not only was I attacked by the doorman opening the door into me, but also in the basement, to my horror, was there signs of a rodent infestation. The art itself was whimsical and entertaining. I would return in the future given they undergo a visit from pest control.

Fantastic space in the Basement area, and the many Artwork Installations I have seen here have been spectacular. It is located in St. James and just off Piccadilly. It is tucked away in a large Yard that is cobblestoned, well worth visiting.

An exquisite display of art. Very small but very unique concept of cacophony art. Would recommend a trip when escaping the hustle of Piccadilly area of the city

An exquisite art space in the heart of Mayfair. Both the g.floor and basement galleries are sublime for minimal, contemporary art - perfect for large scale installation works too
