Art 3 is an artist run group, that was once three and these days is run by two, Peter Mountford and Jane Stothert. For the past 3 years, Art 3 have been curating and organising exhibitions at the Wine Gallery, a popular restaurant at 49 Hollywood Rd, Chelsea, London SW10. It’s history of exhibitions dates back twenty years.

Since September 2001 Art 3 have put on 28 exhibitions featuring artists, whose work is varied enough in style to appeal to a large cross section. The exhibitions were a mixture of one or two artists or themed group shows. The artists selected tended to fall into 3 categories-: local professionals, Young artists starting out on their careers and artists who fit a particular theme for a group exhibition.

Art 3 is at an exciting point of their development as they are currently negotiating expanding operations to other appropriate bars, restaurants and alternative venues in the central London area.
