About Art Below
TURNING AD SPACE INTO ART SPACE SINCE 2006
Art Below uses billboard space to showcase art by leading and emerging artists in the London Underground and overseas. The group has nurtured an international community of artistic talent and has displayed the works of thousands of artists including Banksy, Damien Hirst, Anish Kapoor, Jake & Dinos Chapman, in London, Tokyo, Berlin and Los Angeles.
Ad Lib Gallery has collaborated with Art Below since 2022, enabling numerous artists to exhibit their art at Regent's Park, Hyde Park Corner, Pimlico and various other London tube stations.
We usually host a group exhibition at our gallery to coincide with the billboard campaigns. You can see many of the previous events on our website here, and Instagram video reels of campaigns here and here.
