Louise Blouin Foundation

Head of the LTB Group of Companies, which publishes Art+Auction and Modern Painters, Louise T Blouin MacBain opened this non-profit space in 2006 over three storeys of a 1920s coachworks. The institute has galleries, a conference centre and a café. Experimentation, debate and learning are key principles, the Louise T Blouin Institute priding itself on its think tanks and summits as well as curating shows that draw links between politics, science and art. If it all gets too heavy, retreat to the sunlit café for a spot of tea and cake.
