Beaux Arts opened in Cork Street in 1993 and over the past three decades has developed a reputation for exhibiting the best of Modern British and contemporary painters and sculptors. The gallery's focus is evenly divided between nurturing talent among the current generation of emerging artists - selected fortheir innovative practice as much as the aesthetic qualities of their work - and showing the work of established artists such as John Hoyland and John Bellany. Directors Reg and Patricia Singh opened their first gallery in St Ives in 1971 representing work by the St Ives School, before opening Beaux Arts Bath in 1979. Some of these earlier artists' work now forms the core of the gallery's substantial inventory of Modern British art. Beaux Arts also represents the Estates of Terry Frost, Elisabeth Frink and Lynn Chadwick.
