Victoria Miro: ‘Art should open your eyes to something you don’t know’

Victoria Miro, the influential London art dealer, reflects on her 40-year career as her eponymous gallery celebrates its anniversary. In a rare interview, she discusses her humble beginnings—displaying art in her husband's office window and hosting pop-ups—and her rise to prominence representing acclaimed artists such as Chris Ofili, Isaac Julien, Do Ho Suh, and Chantal Joffe. The gallery's birthday exhibition, "Victoria Miro: 40 Years," features works by its roster, including pieces by Kudzanai-Violet Hwami, Stan Douglas, and Grayson Perry.
