• We are opposed to seeing artists as a commodity
• Principles before Profit
• Wear your Politics proudly
• We are an Alternative Ideological Force
• The Gallery should be a Mecca for Independent artists
• We need to have the feeling of exhilaration from meeting an artist and seeing their work..
Pure Evil Gallery is an artist run space situated in the heart of Hoxton, split across an ever evolving and developing Victorian ground floor and Dickensian basement, which has been alive and very much kicking since it’s entry into the East London contemporary art scene in October 2007.
A pioneering force in the contemporary street art world, it consistently demonstrates it’s worth by exhibiting a myriad of young International and British artists as well as staging international shows; most recently in Berlin, Amsterdam, Sydney, Sao Paulo and most notably in Beijing.
PE Gallery is consistently pushing boundaries by showcasing an eclectic mix of art as well as hosting a multitude of experimental film nights, creative workshops and live music sessions.
We pay the artists 75% of sales because we can. We also have our own music production studio in the basement where we produce our own live music which goes straight onto the website for free download as soon as it is produced.
