The international dealer Almine Rech has announced she is opening a first-floor space in Mayfair as she transitions "to a more private way of working" in the UK capital. The new venue, near Sotheby's on George Street, is around a quarter of the size of her former London gallery, which she closed in August after putting the UK business into voluntary liquidation.
"We have more mature collectors who will buy Modern art but also video work, and many young collectors who are just growing their collections and are now looking towards local practices."
