Auctioneer collective Dead Darlings new podcast Darling Killers is launching on March 6th, available on their website and all listening platforms. Dead Darling Hanna Mattes, a sound editor on the show, will be one of the speakers in this pilot episode as they introduce this extension of their practice. Each episode interrogates artists about a specific work they have killed during the artistic process, initiating release and re-birth as the artists reveals the causation and revives the dead work through their online ‘reserauction’.

Listen in to hear these tales of death and for the chance to participate in bidding on such unique and unseen works, thus brining them back to life.

Further information

Belmacz’s 2025 exhibition programme embraces dynamism. Each of the four gallery exhibitions constituting our year ahead zigzag with structures of time. We set out with hopes of the future (thinking about arts abilities to propel our imaginations) moving towards a cross-generational exhibition, pairing a mother and daughter to convey how life flows arrhythmic. Connecting these moments, we offer reflections on our past and journeys in the present.

 

 

Working Title: I Heart Artists & Oceans
Wednesday 22 January 2025–Friday 28 March 2025

 

Featuring Lulua Alyahya,  Valérian Goalec, Angélique Heidler, Zeynep Kayan, Valeria Schneider and Zinong Zhang Working Title: I Heart Artists & Oceans brings together a range of artists each of whom we have felt inspired by over the last year. These artists make us think; the material conditions of their artworks make us want to venture forth, to reach for places new and to experience again and again the full-on verbosity of life—living.

 

 

The Protagonist
Friday April 11–Friday August 1, 2015

 

25 years since the inception of Belmacz, we are delighted & honoured & excited & energised to present a momentous show reflecting on how the expansive project has grown to date. Driven by the ethos “we do what we like, and what we do we do in a radically welcoming manner”, The Protagonist highlights the gallery’s particularly convivial approach to exhibition making, convening a number of “curators”, each of whom will develop one aspect of the ever-changing presentation. Featuring artists with historical connections to Belmacz as well as new faces, the exhibition will include a vast array of artistic presentations and performances.

 

 

Route 19 
Wednesday September 10–Friday November 7, 2025

 

To be frank, the number 19 is London’s pre-eminent bus route. The drivers are fast, connecting distant poles of the city in 49 minutes (83 on bad days) at most times of the waking day, and night. Sitting on the number 19, with its old-school upholstery, passengers move through London’s various social hubs, contemporary and historic; from North to South → Highbury and Islington, Holborn, Piccadilly Circus, Sloane Square, Chelsea and Battersea (to name some stops). This group exhibition pays homage to the social connectedness, and egalitarian nature of the number 19 bus route, uniting contemporary artists with literary sources.

 

 

INDIEN: Hanna Mattes and Eva Mattes
Wednesday November 19, 2025–Friday February 6, 2026

 

This is an exhibition about development and influence. About how we come to be in the world; about who and what shapes us. Over the last 24 months, Hanna Mattes has devoted herself to radically expanding her artistic voice, nurturing new collaborations and undertaking lengthy processes of situated research. Notably, this journey has seen performance becoming part of her practice. Composed of visual and performative works, INDIEN brings together Hanna with her mother, the film star, Eva Mattes. Here the pair’s respective practices speak directly to the nature of self-creation, treating this as something of an ongoing pursuit towards a place hazy in the imagination.
