Christopher Nicholas Roald Logsdail OBE (born June 1945)[1][2] is a British art dealer, the owner of the Lisson Gallery, a contemporary art gallery on Bell Street, Lisson Grove, London, founded by Logsdail in 1967, and was joined shortly after by Fiona McLean.

Early life and education

Logsdail was born in 1945, the son of John Logsdail and Else Kirsten Dahl, sister of the author Roald Dahl. It was his uncle who introduced him to art.[3]

Logsdail was educated at Bryanston School and the Slade School of Fine Art.[4]

Recognition

Logsdail was interviewed by Sarah Thornton at Art Basel for Seven Days in the Art World.[5] In 2014, The Guardian named him in their "Movers and makers: the most powerful people in the art world".[6]

In 2002, Logsdail purchased Utulivu House, a rambling 18th-century residence in Lamu, Kenya, which he renovated in the traditional style of Gujarati craftsmen. By 2006, he acquired the town’s derelict palm-oil factory and turned it into an artists’ retreat. Artists who have come to stay and work at the art space include Marina Abramović, Anish Kapoor and Christian Jankowski.[7]

Logsdail was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2017 New Year Honours for services to the arts.[8][9]

Personal life

Logsdail has three sons and a daughter from two marriages.[10] His son Alex is also an art dealer.[11]
