Pilar Ordovas

[1] Pilar Ordovas presents three exhibitions each year in a 2,000sq ft gallery space, located in London at 25 Savile Row, designed by Thomas Croft Architects.

[2] In 2015, the gallery inaugurated its overseas presence with a large-scale sculpture exhibition of works by Spanish artist Eduardo Chillida in a double level, 10,000 sq ft space on the corner of Madison Avenue and 52nd St, New York.

[3] Ordovas has staged two further exhibitions in New York in the years since and her gallery has a permanent office located in the city.

[13] Ordovas has also organised a number of exhibitions in collaboration with the estates of Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud, including the gallery's inaugural exhibition, Irrational Marks: Bacon and Rembrandt, autumn 2011, Girl - Lucian Freud, summer 2015,[14] Self, autumn 2014,[15] Movement and Gravity: Bacon and Rodin in Dialogue, spring 2013,[16] The Big Blue, autumn 2015 [17] and London Painters (November 2017 - January 2018, NY; Feb - April 2018, London).

This was the first major exhibition of the artist's work on US soil for 25 years and introduced a new generation of art lovers and collectors to Chillida's work[19] Following Chillida: Rhythm-Time- Silence in New York, the exhibition travelled to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri (May-December 2017), where seven works by Chillida were presented in the museum's sculpture park, among sculptures by Alexander Calder, Henry Moore and Claes Oldenburg.
