London Art Week (June 30-July 7) had its first run as a biannual event organised by a limited company.
It was essentially similar to previous years. That is, galleries in Mayfair and St James specialising in what the organisation dubs ‘pre-contemporary’ art opened their doors to the public in an effort to welcome clients old and new during London’s busy summer season.
However, the event had a new look and website featuring the 40 participants (including Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Bonhams). It also marked the launch of three new galleries in the area: Benappi Fine Art, Tomasso Brothers and Trinity Fine Art.
