Thaddaeus Ropac have announced that John Utterson will join as a Director based in their London gallery, joining the team in January 2026. John will work with collectors internationally for both primary and secondary market sales, and alongside the gallery’s artist liaisons to support our artists with institutional projects and acquisitions. Drawing on his international experience, he will also support our work in both Asia and the United States.
We’re very happy to welcome John back to London and to the gallery at a time of growth and development for our international team. He brings a wonderful energy and art historical rigour to his work, as well as the international experience he has gained while working in America the past few years.
— Thaddaeus Ropac
