Art First is a contemporary art gallery founded in 1991. Based in Cork Street, Mayfair in Central London, we exhibit British and international art.

Beautifully lit by natural light from the first floor skylight, Art First houses the main gallery as well as the more intimate Art First Project space overlooking Cork Street.

Art First represents a stable of painters and sculptors highly acclaimed by critics and collectors, and their work can be found in the collections of public institutions in the UK, the USA and worldwide.

While not confining ourselves to any school or category of painting or sculpture, stylistic consistencies emerge. Strong inner vision, a formed language, a high quality of execution and concept are key attributes.

Art First runs an extensive and dynamic exhibition programme. All details of current exhibitions as well as archival information of past exhibitions and publications are listed on the 'what's on' pages and on the exhibition archive page or the gallery artists' mini sites.
