David Knowles

Spear’s Review

David Knowles founded Artelier to bring together contemporary artists with ‘exclusive corporate clients’ and private art collectors to create striking projects.

As well as supporting emerging artists – he previously curated projects and galleries in association with Arts Council England to spotlight young talent – Knowles has a strong business nous and understands the needs of a wealthy clientele, creating spaces for super-prime residential developments (One Hyde Park, One Palm, Rosewood, St Regis) and the interiors of ‘over 20’ superyachts. Knowles has a master’s degree in fine art and guest lectures at a host of European institutions.

His firm also assists with large-scale art installations and works with corporate and private clients to finesse their art collections.
