David Messum Fine Art Ltd

British Impressionism, modern British and contemporary art and sculpture

David Messum is a name that has long held a powerful reputation as one of the country’s leading art dealers, not only a pioneer in the field of British Impressionism and the Newlyn and St Ives Schools, but also a specialist in exhibiting contemporary British art and sculpture.

Established in 1963, David Messum continues to expand the business with the opening of a new principal London venue in the heart of St. James’s. The gallery, a prestigious space over two floors, offers the chance to view works of art by 19th and 20th Century British artists, on whose names the reputation of the company was founded, together with a regularly changing exhibition program focusing on the Contemporary Artists and Artist Estates represented by David Messum.

David Messum has historic associations with many international galleries, allowing the gallery to promote British art internationally in such places as Barcelona, New York, Toronto, and Melbourne.
