What is it
White Cube is London’s ultimate mega-gallery. The one that started it all. White Cube brought us Tracey Emin, Damien Hirst and loads of other YBAs. And after moving into its huge Bermondsey space a few years ago, it became one of the first museum-quality commercial galleries in the world. Seriously impressive.
Why go
White Cube strives to make small gallery exhibitions feel like shows at massive institutions. Their Tracey Emin, Andreas Gursky and Anselm Kiefer shows are worthy of any Tate or RA.
Don’t miss
There’s no permanent collection at White Cube, so it’s the regularly changing exhibitions that make a visit worthwhile. But a lot of shows will also have events and talks programmes, so keep an eye on the website for those.
When to visit
Open Tue-Sat, 10am-6pm, Sun noon-6pm. Free.
Time Out tip
In our league of ‘best art gallery toilets’, White Cube comes pretty near the top. Lovely bogs, seriously.
