The Newport Street Gallery is owned by Damien Hirst - who found infamy for chopping cows in half in the ’90s and calling it art.

Hidden away in the middle of an estate, the building is fantastic. Although the exhibition I saw was trying a bit too hard to shock - perhaps not a surprise - I did think it was worth seeing.
