Maureen Paley (born 1953[1]) is the American owner of a contemporary art gallery in Bethnal Green, London, where she lives. It was founded in 1984, called Interim Art during the 1990s, and renamed Maureen Paley in 2004. She exhibited Young British Artists at an early stage.[2] Artists represented include Turner Prize winners Lawrence Abu Hamdan, Gillian Wearing and Wolfgang Tillmans. One thing in common with many of the artists represented is their interest in addressing social issues.[3]

The gallery is located at 60 Three Colts Lane.[4] Maureen Paley opened a space in Hove called Morena di Luna in 2017 [5] and in 2021 opened Studio M at Rochelle School near Shoreditch.[6]
