The gallery is part of The Triangle Network, an international network or residencies and workshops offering artists the opportunity develop their practice stimulated by a climate of international exchange and dialogue.

Some studios are rented to London-based artists and some are reserved for an International Residency Programme for non-UK based artists. Gasworks residencies encourage exchange of ideas between practitioners, instigating experimentation with new concepts and new materials. Since 1994, Gasworks Residency Programme has worked with artists from countries worldwide, with Chris Ofili, Yinka Shonibare, Song Dong and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye among its alumni.Gareth Harris (27 November 2023), Gasworks contemporary art centre in London appoints Robert Leckie as new director The Art Newspaper.

Gasworks residencies include an education and outreach programme, with some residencies dedicated to working with local community groups. Residencies culminate in Open Studios with occasional projects developed in collaboration with the exhibition programme.

Exhibitions

Gasworks hosts up to four exhibitions a year and profiles emerging or mid-career international or UK artists who have limited previous exposure in London. The exhibitions are complemented by a programme of education and off-site activities.
