Ambika P3

Ambika P3 is a space for contemporary art and architecture, developed from the vast former concrete construction hall at the University of Westminster. Located in the heart of central London, Ambika P3 is a distinctive space for contemporary art and architecture which presents a public programme of solo and group exhibitions, education projects, talks and events.

Its size is unique for an exhibition space in crowded central London’s West End. Dedicated to innovation, experimentation and learning, Ambika P3 operates as a laboratory and meeting place for practitioners, industry and academia.

Umbro 100: Sportswear x Fashion

12 April - 28 April 2024

Over the last century, sportswear has evolved from its functional, athletic, and sporting roots to become the daily uniform for billions of people around the world. Founded in 1924, the British company Umbro has been central to this revolution.

Today collaborations between sportswear companies and fashion brands are the norm, but Umbro’s collaboration with Paul Smith in 2002 marked the beginning of this trend. Since then, Umbro has collaborated with over 60 different designers and brands.

Falling Away

22 October – 20 November 2021

The exhibition 'Falling Away' brings together Catherine Yass’s vertiginous film installations. The first retrospective of the artist’s extensive body of film work, it spans the past two decades and includes a new work made in response to the impact of COVID-19 and global warming. 

Ambika P3’s vast subterranean space will engage audiences in the disorientating effects of Yass’s films, which portray architecture in a state of construction, abandonment or demolition.
