“Getting rich quick is out of the question.”
That’s how one new gallerist described today’s art scene in London, according to a recent Financial Times article covering the capital’s emerging gallery owners.
These aren’t the flashy, globe-trotting dealers of old. Instead, they’re forging a quieter, more sustainable path - working out of shared studios, converting modest storefronts into exhibition spaces, and spotlighting diverse, often overlooked artists. Their mission? Not to chase trends, but to build meaningful careers and resilient communities.
At LettsArt, we believe this signals a new era in the art world. And it’s one we’re proud to champion.
The article paints a picture of today’s first-time gallery owners slashing overheads, skipping expensive international fairs, and doubling down on thoughtful curation and local connection. It’s not just about making sales, it’s about making art matter.
That’s exactly where LettsArt comes in.
