About Aspex Gallery

Contact Details & Working Hours

Details

Artists such as Mona Hatoum, Richard Wilson and Susan Collis, all internationally acclaimed, received support from Aspex at an early point in their careers. This work has continued with projects including Emergency, an open submission biennial exhibition, offering key opportunities for artist exposure and professional development.

Since relocating to the waterfront at Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth in 2006, the gallery has focused on finding ways to meaningfully engage its visitors by facilitating connections with artists and revealing the creative process. The participation programme provides activities for toddlers through to pensioners, and its work with children with Special Educational Needs and Autism has been described as exemplary.

The gallery is home to the aspex Cafe Bar, a family friendly space selling fresh lunches, cake and great tea & coffee. You can also buy a range of great gifts, crafts and greetings cards in the aspex Craft & Design space.
