City Racing was a squatted artist-run space in Oval Mansions, Kennington, South London which was active between 1988 and 1998.
It was a cooperative by five artists Matt Hale, Paul Noble, John Burgess, Keith Coventry and Peter Owen.
[1] City Racing became an important and renowned exhibition space; its openings provided a networking opportunity for many artists.
David Burrows wrote that "in one sense, City Racing refused to be marginalised from the mainstream and had conventional career aspirations.
"[2] A retrospective book was published by Black Dog, called City Racing, The Life and Times of an artist Run Gallery.
