James Hyman Gallery is pleased to announce its move to a brand new purpose built gallery at 5 Savile Row, London W1. The new gallery opens in September 2007.

This move to one of the largest galleries in Mayfair allows James Hyman Gallery to develop its programme of exhibitions by International Contemporary Artists, alongside the Modern British Artists and Estates that the gallery already represents.

In celebration of the opening of the new gallery, James Hyman Gallery is staging two major exhibitions. These run from 19 September to 27 October.

Gallery 1 presents a specially curated exhibition of important artworks entitled The Flower of Life. This exhibition explores the relationships between Art, Love and Nature and appropriately focuses on the themes of change and transformation. Highlights include major paintings by Michael Andrews, Patrick Caulfield, Alan Davie, Derrick Greaves, Patrick Heron, Ivon Hitchens and Edward Middleditch, as well as Marc Quinn's recent Portraits of Landscapes.

Gallery 2 presents new paintings and drawings by Lewis Chamberlain entitled Lewis Chamberlain. Things That Go. Following Chamberlain’s sell-out show four years ago, this exhibition is a rare opportunity to view the artist’s latest, painstakingly produced works, including his largest painting to date. Chamberlain (b.1966) graduated from the Slade School of Art in 1988, since when his disquieting works, often of children’s toys and a mannequin in contrived settings, have combined intense realism with fantasy, marrying a psychological charge to a sense of orchestrated calm.

The move to a new gallery space also marks a change of name. In future James Hyman Fine Art will be known as James Hyman Gallery.

JAMES HYMAN received his doctorate from the Courtauld Institute in London and has worked internationally as a writer, lecturer, broadcaster, curator and art dealer.

Recent publications by James Hyman include The Battle for Realism: Figurative Art in Britain during the Cold War 1945-60 (Yale University Press, 2001), which was nominated for the William MB Berger Prize, and Derrick Greaves. From Kitchen-Sink to Shangri-La (Lund Humphries, 2007)

The move from Mason’s Yard to Savile Row will allow James Hyman Gallery to greatly expand its activities.

As well as this website we also publish catalogues and participate in art fairs.
