The Mayor Gallery, the first gallery to open its doors in Cork Street, will be celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2025 in its new location at the heart of St James's. Founded by Fred Mayor (1903-1973) in 1925, many artists were exhibited for the first time in England at The Mayor Gallery including Bacon, Calder, Ernst, Klee, Masson and Miro, amongst others.

The Mayor Gallery was also the centre of UNIT ONE, a group that included Henry Moore and Ben Nicholson
Fred’s son, James Mayor, took over the Gallery in 1973 and, since then, The Mayor Gallery has shown the work of many leading American artists including Hesse, Lichtenstein, Martin, Rauschenberg, Ryman, Twombly, Warhol and Wesselmann.

The Gallery continues to show the works of leading Pop artists as well as European Nouveau Realism, Surrealist and Dada but is now internationally renowned for being London's foremost Gallery for the ZERO and Concrete movements.

The gallery usually presents eight curated exhibitions per year. Recent solo shows include Billy Apple, Imre Bak,Braco Dimitrijevic, Feliza Burztyn, Waldemar Cordeiro, Filko, Raimund Girke, T. Kuwayama, F. Morellet, J. Stanczak, Shinkichi Tajiri and Carel Visser.

The Mayor Gallery participates in TEFAF NL, TEFAF NY, Art Basel and Frieze Masters with carefully curated stands, either encompassing the international Post-War program or focusing on solo presentations such as Bursztyn, Dekkers, Fangor, Loewensberg and Tajiri.

The gallery regularly lends artworks to international institutions such as Centre Pompidou, MET NY, Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt, Stedelijk Museum, Reina Sofia, Picasso Museum Barcelona and Tate Modern.
The Mayor Gallery values its close and lasting relationships with collectors and institutions; recent museums acquisitions went to Museum Boijmans Rotterdam (Penrose), Centre Pompidou (Seligmann), Crocker Museum Sacramento (Tajiri), Kunst Museum Basel (Moss), Rijksmuseum Amsterdam (Moss) and Tate (R. Mallary, Tajiri).
