The Foundry Gallery (est. 2010) is a nomadic contemporary art gallery that explores the relationships between art and architecture. Established as part of Le Lay Architects, the gallery forms the foundation of the practice’s research into how architectural ideas are conceived and engaged with.

Uniquely positioned between a commercial gallery and a project space, we do not represent artists but we act as a ‘launch pad.’ In the past we have selected three artists, many whom haven’t had a solo exhibition, through application, to work collaboratively on a new body of work which explores our ethos.

We provide artists with an opportunity to take risks and define/redefine their practice. Not bound to a house style, we have shown a wide range of artwork informed by contemporary artistic practice across multi-disciplines. We continue to accept applications and would love to hear from you.
