Those are some Richard Amor paintings up there, more on Richard in a moment. You’re right, 2025 was way way too quiet in terms of Cultivate, long gone are the maximalist days of Vyner Street now, gone are the days when East London was alive with the possibilities offered by empty or unwanted buildings, where…
We’re waking up with Spring, the Madeleine Strindberg on-line exhibition has just opened, the next Mixtape show is on the way in a couple of weeks, and we’re working on a number of other things that we’re keeping under our hats right now, and talking of right now… Cultivate presents: Sean Worrall, #43Leaves, 43 pieces…
Where were we? We asked that already didn’t we? Time to come out of hibernation? Spin around, a little bit more? Well why not, the Mixtape shows and the online exhibitions aren’t broken so nothing really needs fixing. Time to gather around the tips of bulbs and the shapes of things to come. You know…
We have new two new limited edition Emma Harvey “F**k Your Boys Club” prints, the original prints sold out in one day at last Summer’s Art Car Boot Fair, there are now two new limited editions of 20 in two new colourways, one black and one pink, both on silver. The prints are 2 layered…

We did explain the idea (and the history) behind the Three x Three exhibitions a couple of days ago, the online shows are just one of many balls we are trying to keep in air right now. Today we have the names of the three artists involved in our latest Three x Three show, three…
About the Three x Three exhibitions Back in the early days of Cultivate, back a dozen or so years ago, we ran a series of shows called “Three x Three” where we gave one of the three gallery walls to an artist, three artists sharing a wall each in the gallery. I think we did…
Was that the very very (very) last day of Summer just then? Just there, in the square in Kings Cross? At the Art Car Boot Fair in the last bits of sun? Hopefully not but that was yesterday and our thoughts are now turning to more online things (alongside other things). Thing is, we like…
Where were we? Raging against various clubs, raging against each other about some of it, these Cultivate shows may appear serene but they do some with debate. We enjoyed Crystal Palace, the train companies did their best to make things difficult but we enjoyed Free The Gallery, especially the Saturday morning, when we had lots…
