CUBITT was established in the early 1990s as an artist-run studio and gallery in Kings Cross, London. CUBITT gallery’s reputation as a vital site for progressive international contemporary art projects and as a focal point for localized artist-led initiatives was recognized when CUBITT was granted fixed term funding by Arts Council England (formally London Arts) in January 2001. CUBITT is now part of Arts Council small-scale galleries sector alongside Showroom, Matt’s, Chisenhale, Gasworks and Southwark Park. CUBITT is being run as a new model for the progressive development of an artist-led space, still in part reliant on the co-operative assistance of studio holders but employing a part-time administrator and providing an 18-month bursary for an independent curator to instigate and develop the gallery program.
