Messum's

The Fond Farewell by Edmund Blair Leighton (1852–1922), exhibited at Messum's

Messum's is an art gallery in Bury Street, St. James's, London, with a branch in Marlow, Buckinghamshire.

History

The gallery was founded by David Messum in 1963.[1] The gallery exhibits contemporary art and work by British Impressionist, modern and figurative painters and sculptors. Messum's has promoted the work of the early Newlyn and St Ives painters.

Messum's has staged significant exhibitions of British Impressionism, and in 1985 David Messum's publishing company published British Impressionism: A Garden of Bright Images by Laura Wortley.[2]

In 2012, a proposed development in Cork Street threatened to cause Messum's to move.[3][4]

In 2016, Johnny Messum founded Messums Wiltshire, an art gallery based in the tithe barn at Place Farm, Tisbury, Wiltshire.[5][6]

Artists

Artists who have exhibited at the gallery include William Bowyer, Peter Brown, James Dodds, Rose Hilton, Kurt Jackson,[7] Edward Piper, John Piper[8] and Jeremy Annear.
