Newport Street Gallery
The Newport Street Gallery is an art gallery in London, England which displays works selected from the personal art collection of Damien Hirst. It is located on Newport Street Vauxhall. Newport Street Gallery is the realisation of Hirst's long-term ambition to share his art collection with the public. Hirst announced plans for the gallery in March 2012, and it opened in October 2015. It includes a cafe, gallery shop and offices for Hirst's company.The building is a former theatre carpentry and scenery production workshop, dating from 1913. It was designed by John Woodward, the London County Council's district surveyor for the area. It is Grade II listed. For its conversion to the gallery, the building was redesigned by Caruso St John. The design was praised for its "virtuosity", and in October 2016 it won the RIBA Stirling Prize.The gallery spans 37,000 square feet and includes six exhibition spaces – one with a ceiling height of 11 metres – split over two levels.
