The Context Gallery has established a reputation as one of the most vital spaces for the presentation, promotion and dissemination of contemporary art in the north of Ireland. Since its conception in 1993, the gallery has promoted and encouraged emerging Northern Irish artists and presented their work alongside emerging and established international artists, thereby providing an important platform for the development of their careers.


The gallery has presented the work of a number of local artists who have gone on to represent their country in biennials and festivals around the world and regularly publishes artists books, monologues and catalogues. In March, 2009, the gallery moved back to its former site in the newly renovated exhibition space on Artillery Street in the heart of Derry. In addition to its rigorous exhibition programme, the gallery presents off-site projects, performance, film, audio-arts and cross-disciplinary projects and has a proactive outreach and education programme producing cross-cultural initiatives and dissemination of contemporary art within the community.


The Context Gallery is a non-profit, recognised Charity that receives the generous support of the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, the National Lottery, the Derry City Council as well as grants from various foundations. The gallery is also extremely grateful to the support of local companies such as Diamond Corrugated, the collegial support of local arts organisations such as Void, Verbal Arts Centre, Playhouse and the Nerve Centre and to individuals through donations, ambassadorial support and volunteering.

Recognised Charitable Status Number: XR55097
