Five Years
Five Years is a artist run gallery which has been located in Regent Studios, Hackney, London since 2007. It is programmed by the artists; Jo Addison, Michelle Deignan, Edward Dorrian, Rochelle Fry, Marc Hulson, Cedar Lewisohn, Louisa Minkin, Sally Morfill, Susan Morris, Esther Planas, Alex Schady, Francis Summers and Alice Walton.
Rather than acting as a 'curatorial' entity, the group's members develop exhibitions based around the concerns emerging from their own work, creating projects which initiate a varied and engaging dialogue. This programme is reflected in a series of regularily published Periodicals. Volume 1, featuring Periodicals 1-4, which marks the first year of the new gallery's projects, is now complete.

Five Years was originally founded in 1998. The first Five Years space was situated on Underwood Street in north London and incorporated two galleries.
Artists that have exhibited work at Five Years include: Olaf Breuning, Pierre Huyghe, Andrew Kötting, Jake & Dinos Chapman, Michael Curran, Marcia Farquhar, Peter Lloyd Lewis, Sarah Woodfine, Anne Tallentire, Christoph Girardet and Matthias Müller, Claire Goodwin, Michelle Deignan, Claire De Jong, Lisa Castagner, Mathew Hale, Per Hüttner, Emma Barrow, Monika Oechsler.
