Victoria Miro Gallery

Once her children started school,[2] Victoria Miro opened her first gallery in Cork Street, Mayfair, in 1985, where she became one of the principal dealers,[3][4] although the premises at 750 square feet (70 m2) were little larger than a studio apartment.

[5] Long waiting lists of collectors and museums developed to buy work from the galleries, and Miro reported that even Charles Saatchi, when he bought a Cecily Brown painting from her, "seemed pleased to get one".

[1] The conversion architect, Trevor Horne retained some of the original features of the building, such as the worn staircase and rough roof beams, while the waste ground at the rear next to Regent's Canal was left to artist Ian Hamilton Finlay to regenerate.

[8] In 2013, Victoria Miro Gallery opened a second space in a converted bank office in St George Street, Mayfair,[2] designed by Claudio Silvestrin and executed by project architect Michael Drain.

[9] In 2017, Victoria Miro Gallery opened an exhibition space in the former Galleria il Capricorno in a 17th-century building in the San Marco neighbourhood of Venice.
