Taymour Grahne

London | United Kingdom
Taymour Grahne Projects, founded in 2020, is a contemporary art gallery with three locations in London’s Notting Hill and Holland Park neighbourhoods.
 
The gallery presents an innovative physical and online exhibition program with a mission to showcase the most exciting contemporary artists.
 
In addition to continually featuring new international artists, the gallery maintains a small, dedicated roster of ‘collaborative artists’ - those who Taymour works with on a longer-term basis. By moving away from the traditional artist representation model, and by inviting collaboration with artists, curators, and other galleries, Taymour Grahne Projects ushers in a new way of working - one that is fluid, intuitive, and ultimately supportive of artist career growth.
 
Taymour Grahne Projects is a New Art Dealer Alliance (NADA) member.
