Sept. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Jay Jopling is cementing his role as king of the London art dealers with a new White Cube gallery in the West End that cost $20 million and adds enough space to help put him ahead of rival Gagosian in the U.K. capital.
Jopling, a tall man with fl-rimmed glasses and a dark suit with tapered trousers, said in an interview that he wasn't concerned about expanding at what may be the top of the market.
Jopling's gray-clad rectangular building, constructed on a demolished electricity substation -- the $20 million cost includes the demolition -- and crammed into a courtyard edged by old-master dealers, has 5,000 square feet of gallery space plus viewing rooms and offices, mostly illuminated by natural light from narrow rows of windows.

Jay Jopling's White Cube Mason's Yard, the third addition to the empire of the Old Etonian dealer, had opened its doors.
It is perhaps a mark of Jopling's ambition that in taking over a former electricity sub-station and creating in its place a cool emporium of culture, the project echoes nothing less than Tate Modern, the gallery that has contributed most to the huge expansion of public interest in art in Britain in the last decade.
Jay Jopling was born in 1963, the son of Michael Jopling, a Yorkshire landowner better known as chief whip and Minister of Agriculture in Margaret Thatcher's government.

A new gallery, it was called White Cube, and Jay Jopling, the dealer whose brainchild it was, had brought worldwide attention to some of the most talked-about artists on the British art scene, including Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Marc Quinn, and Antony Gormley.
The 36-year-old Jopling is a tall man with a voluble but reassuring manner of speaking and an expensively tailored wardrobe.
