Bastian, the modern and contemporary gallery founded in Berlin by Céline and Heiner Bastian in 1989, opened the new space in London. Bastian’s new gallery is be located on Mayfair’s Davies Street and it's the first international outpost outside of Berlin. Under the direction of Aeneas Bastian, son of founders Celine and Heiner Bastian, the 90-square-meter ground floor gallery is situated in a 20th century townhouse that is renovated by David Chipperfield Architects.

Gallery's curatorial program will continue to focus on its artist roster with an emphasis on leading German and American post-war artists, as well as other historical and contemporary figures from beyond its stable. The inaugural exhibition, which will be on view until April 2019, will be dedicated to Polaroids by Andy Warhol. It will present a series of sixty portrait and self-portrait photographs by Warhol, depicting artists, actors, and friends of his Factory entourage, including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Paloma Picasso, and Yves Saint-Laurent.
