Following the closure of Londonewcastles original project space in Shoreditch, after a successful eight years, the new and more intimate Gallery 46 has opened in Summer 2016.
46 Ashfield Street, London, E1 2AJ
Gallery 46 in Whitechapel is our new sister gallery to be used as Londonewcastle Project Space. The new space, established through the partnership of Martin J Tickner and Sean McLusky and Fruitmachine founders, Martin Bell & Wai Hung Young breaks fresh ground for the open-source, non-conformist curatorial approach Tickner and McLusky employed at their (rightly) notorious MEN Gallery, in Shoreditch.Housed in a pair of newly renovated Georgian houses in the grounds of Whitechapel Hospital, GALLERY 46 is set over 3 floors and 8 rooms and is a kaleidoscopic addition to Whitechapel’s burgeoning gallery scene and close by its artistic...

→A Little Piece of Mind is a project created and curated by Design and Branding Studio – [Marque][1].
Over the past 6 months, three studio locations – Glasgow, London and New York – have identified, commissioned and briefed several of the leading exponents of Quilting to create a series of Contemporary Quilts.
In Spring 2009, after this process is completed, the quilts will be exhibited, firstly in London at Lonodnewcastle Project Space, then in New York and Glasgow. Also to be featured at these shows will be a Digital Quilt that Marque is simultaneously curating.
The exhibitions will culminate in the quilts being auctioned. The sales proceeds will be donated equally between two charities who are committed to confronting and preventing homelessness, in each of the three cities in which Marque live and work: [Shelter][2] in London and Glasgow and the [Bowery Mission][3] in New York City.
A catalogue documenting the process is also being produced and will be sold to further the charitable donations.
In the spirit of collaboration Marque has asked those they admire and respect in the international creative communities to contribute '*a little piece of mind*' i.e. the material with which to forward on to the Quilters.
Those who have already committed include: *Rankin, Daisy de Villeneuve, Davy Jones, Marcel Zyskind, Poppy de Villeneuve, Gavin Turk, Timothy Everest, Tom Dixon, Bill Amberg, Howie B, Bloc Media, 6876, Village Green, Boudicca and Rough & Remy.*
