About Barbara Behan

Barbara Behan is dedicated to contemporary artists, Barbara Behan opened its doors in 2003 close to Tate Britain in Pimlico. Subsequently, the gallery has established an international platform for an artistic scene that hitherto had been almost completely absent from galleries in London. The gallery's portfolio emphasizes the younger generation of international artists whose focus on existence itself is explored by re-examining issues such as form, time, light, space, colour and surface, or, as in other instances myth, history, politics and science. Widely divergent and individual, all of the artists share a profound concern with contemporary life and culture whilst not forgetting past cultures and the artistic research from whose observation one can only learn in order to progress.
