Belmacz

Belmacz is a contemporary art gallery and showroom based in central London.

Founded by Julia Muggenburg in 2000, the gallery is devoted to collaboration, be this by supporting artists to grow their practices or by nurturing conversations. Belmacz contextualises these collaborations through renowned solo and group exhibitions as well as through expansive publishing and commissioning projects. The artists we have worked with have gone on to be awarded international accolades including Frieze Artist Award, the German Short Film Award, and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Awards for Artists.

Alluding to Muggenburg’s founding vision for the gallery as an international site for innovation, ‘Belmacz’ is a composite name combining the male adjective ‘bel’ (from the French for beautiful), ‘maximum,’ and ‘cz’ (from the Slavic alphabet), the space’s title is a further allusion to the ground-breaking jeweller Suzanne Belperron.
