Coordinator:
Alessio Antoniolli, Director, Triangle Arts Trust and Gasworks

The Gaswork studio building was established by Triangle Arts Trust and is situated by the Oval Cricket ground in South East London. It was based on the model of the Bag Factory, in Johannesburg, South Africa. It consists of a gallery and fifteen artists studios. Twelve studios are rented to London based artists and three are reserved for an international residency programme that enables non-UK based artists to live and work in London for a period up to three months. Since inception in 1994, Gasworks has hosted over 140 artists from 50 different countries world wide.

Gasworks is a contemporary arts space housing 12 artists' studios and presenting a programme of exhibitions, residencies, international fellowships and educational projects. Gasworks focuses on visual arts practice, working discursively with emerging UK-based and international artists towards the development of their work. Through its programme, Gasworks aims to contribute to the dissemination of contemporary arts practice to a wider audience.

Gasworks houses the office of Triangle Arts Trust.
