About

Delphian Gallery, the artist run, nomadic gallery and arts platform was launched in 2017 by Benjamin Murphy and Nick JS Thompson. Primarily London based, they aim to show the most captivating and challenging work by emerging and early-career contemporary artists. They often endeavour to give a platform to artists that aren’t regularly shown in London.  

Past exhibitions have included sell-out solo shows from Florence Hutchings, Jordy Kerwick and Bertrand Fournier, as well as large-scale group exhibitions. In 2018 they launched their inaugural annual open call competition which is entirely free-to-enter. 

As well as the gallery, Delphian also produce the Delphian Podcast, Delphian Magazine, and host free talks and panel discussions for early-career artists.
