Plinth is an independent gallery in a former print works in Leeds. We show living artists in rooms with nothing else going on, and it costs nothing to come in.
Six shows a year. Every artist gets a room’s worth of space, a printed text and a proper opening. Work is for sale, and we’ll tell you the price before you ask.

EnquireEvery doorway lines up on purpose, so from the street you can see the far wall before you’ve decided to come in. Pick a room and we’ll walk you there.

Where you come in. A lit ceiling, a bench for coats and conversations, and the first works hung low and far apart.

Skylights run the full length of the ceiling, so the best light is between 2 and 5 pm. The biggest paintings live here.

A tall corner with a concrete floor. Two walls, three works, and nowhere to hide.

One bench, one doorway and a wall left empty for the next show. Sit down; nobody is counting.
Each room is about 9 × 10 metres with a 4.2 m ceiling. Entrance on the left, step-free.
Four shows to come. Each opens on a Friday evening, 6 to 9 pm, with a drink and the artist in the room.

Two painters, one canvas each, finished by the other. There is a sun on both. They haven’t said why.
