The Royal Academy of Arts and Haunch of Venison announced today 10 October, 2008 that the gallery will move to 6 Burlington Gardens in February 2009.
Having housed the British Museum’s ethnographic collections between 1970-1997 and more recently major exhibitions, such as Giorgio Armani, USA Today and the forthcoming GSK Contemporary season, the building, owned by the Royal Academy of Arts, will offer new opportunities for the gallery. Charles Saumarez Smith, Secretary and Chief Executive of the Royal Academy of Arts, said: “We are delighted by the decision of Haunch of Venison to move into 6 Burlington Gardens.
This arrangement will enable us to further our goals in the redevelopment of the Royal Academy, which will be of immense benefit to the art-going public.”Commenting on the move, Haunch of Venison’s Harry Blain and Graham Southern, said: “The opportunity to occupy this landmark building opens up a range of new, exciting exhibiting possibilities for our artists. The gallery will expand its current exhibition programme, as it will be able to mount both ambitious, large-scale exhibitions and an ever-changing array of smaller projects.
