Hoxton Square is the current centre for artistic activity in the East End. A catalyst of the Hoxton scene was the visionary art entrepreneur Joshua Compston who opened his Factual Nonsense Gallery in Charlotte Road in the early 90s. The Lux Centre opened in 1997, followed in 2000 by The White Cube2 Gallery run by leading BritArt dealer Jay Jopling.
