Your Vision. Our Reality
Our Founders
Founders of Unit London - Jonny Burt and Joe Kennedy (from left to right).
Joe and Jonny are true disruptors of the art world. Having navigated an inhospitable artistic landscape in their early-twenties, they became increasingly aware of the inherent restrictions in the industry. As young gallery Directors they were - and still are - uniquely placed to influence the movement of the industry and help to realign its ingrained value systems. Seven years on from Unit London’s inception in September 2013, Joe and Jonny have redefined the concept of how a typical gallery should function and have created a model that is culturally relevant to contemporary audiences.
Since 2013, Unit London has held several spaces across the capital, moving from pop-up spaces in Chiswick, Covent Garden and Soho, before the launch of the gallery’s flagship 6,000 ft space in the heart of Mayfair, on Hanover Square, in June 2018. It is with this passion they have turned their attention to the global world of events, using their young and forward-thinking attitudes to create UNIT X. Unit X brings a team of professionals with the experience needed to disrupt and challenge the status-quo.
