Lehmann Maupin is pleased to announce its new permanent location in London at No. 9 Cork Street in the Mayfair neighborhood. Strategically positioned alongside the highest concentration of galleries in the city and next to the prestigious Royal Academy of Arts, Lehmann Maupin’s new location will enhance its connections to the London arts scene. Functioning as a multi-purpose space, the gallery will present 3–4 focused exhibitions annually on the ground floor. In between exhibitions, works from Lehmann Maupin’s global programming will be on view year-round in the gallery’s private viewing space on the first floor. The works on view in the viewing space will mirror what the gallery’s artists are presenting at institutions in Europe and beyond. The viewing space will also serve as a platform for the gallery’s secondary market activities in Europe.
Since launching its inaugural UK outpost in 2020, the gallery has continued to expand its presence in London under the leadership of partner Isabella Icoz. Throughout the past five years, the gallery has mounted 30 exhibitions in London, including the UK debuts of Nari Ward, Teresita Fernández, Tammy Nguyen, Dominic Chambers, and Calida Rawles, among others. The gallery has also been instrumental in cultivating relationships with UK museums and supporting its artists' institutional activity in the region. Recent notable museum exhibitions include Do Ho Suh: Walk the House at the Tate Modern in 2025; Cecilia Vicuña’s Turbine Hall commission at the Tate Modern in 2022; and Kader Attia’s The Museum of Emotion at the Hayward Gallery in 2019; and Gilbert & George: 21ST CENTURY PICTURES at the Hayward Gallery in 2025. Additionally, Teresa Solar Abboud’s work is currently on view at the Hayward Gallery through March 2026. Solar Abboud’s outdoor sculptural commission, Mother Tongue, explores the processes of translation and assimilation she experiences within her family.

In March 2026, Catherine Opie will have a solo exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London, marking the artist’s first major museum show in the UK.
As Lehmann Maupin continues to grow in the UK and across Europe, Mary Cork will join the London team as Senior Director. Cork was previously a Senior Director at Stephen Friedman and at Marlborough Gallery in London. She will support Icoz with sales and artist initiatives.
2026 LONDON EXHIBITION SCHEDULE
Freya Douglas-Morris · February 26–March 28, 2026
Lehmann Maupin will present a new body of paintings by artist Freya Douglas-Morris in the gallery’s new London location. By intentionally crafting imaginary spaces, Douglas-Morris allows viewers to locate their own associations, experiences, and impressions within her work. Her paintings look far beyond her immediate surroundings and yet frequently include kernels of ideas found close to home; in this way, the paintings are a mixture of the imagined and the familiar, both recognizable and universally shared.
Anna Park · April 30–May 30, 2026
Lehmann Maupin will mount a solo exhibition of new work by Anna Park in London, marking the artist’s first solo show with the gallery since joining in 2025 and her debut in the UK. The New York-based artist is known for her charcoal and ink drawings that teeter between abstraction and figuration. Large-scale and satirical, Park’s work often comments on the cultural commodification of women, examining the societal pressures imposed by the media to conform to unrealistic beauty standards.
Teresa Solar Abboud · September 10–October 17, 2026
Lehmann Maupin is pleased to announce Madrid-based artist Teresa Solar Abboud’s inaugural solo exhibition with the gallery in London, which will coincide with Frieze London. Solar Abboud joined the gallery’s roster in 2025, on the heels of a string of institutional moments, including her participation in the 59th La Biennale di Venezia, curated by Cecilia Alemani in 2022. Solar Abboud is known for her large-scale sculpture groupings that construct surreal, hybrid worlds. Her recent projects explore her conceptual concerns through sculptures that take on zoomorphic or anthropomorphic shapes, simultaneously evoking individually embodied functions and the complex structures of relational space in an industrial world. Currently, her large-scale sculpture Mother Tongue is on view at the Hayward Gallery.
