History

Maddox Arts first opened in September 2007, with the group show 'Irrational Exuberance'. The original owners were David Gonzalez and Juan Manuel Gonzalez Mantero, two financiers who originally founded the gallery on Maddox Street, later moving to a busier location on Brook's Mews. In 2008 the Gallery was sold to Mario Palencia, who maintained the gallery location, name and identity which had already been established with some ambitious and varied shows from international artists. Maddox Arts exhibits International Contemporary Art, with artists from all over the globe.[1]

Maddox Arts Gallery exhibitions include shows curated by James Putnam such as 'Viva Lolita' in 2008; a show inspired by Vladimir Nabokov's iconic novel, Lolita, which brought together eighteen international contemporary artists such as Nobuyoshi Araki, Trevor Brown, Nick Ruston, Charlotte Beaudry, Nazif Topcuoglu and Young British Artist, Mat Collishaw. Other shows include 'Weight for the Showing' curated by Paul Carey-Kent presenting the works of Richard Serra, Phyllida Barlow, Christian Jankowski, Richard Schur, Nicolas Feldmeyer amongst others.
